Welcome to Lake Pend Oreille High School

Greetings, LPOHS Families!

I hope this message finds you well and enjoying the fall weather! As we dive into the month of November, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued partnership and support in helping our students learn and grow every day. This month brings several important events and reminders…

🕒 A Strong Start to Quarter 2

We are excited to begin Quarter 2 of the school year this week. This fresh start gives students a chance to reflect on their accomplishments and set new academic and personal goals. Encourage your child to stay organized, ask questions, and take pride in their learning journey. Our staff is ALWAYS here to support them along the way.

🇺🇸 Veterans Day – Honoring Our Heroes

On Tuesday, November 11, we will honor our nation’s veterans and the sacrifices they have made to protect our freedom. Our school will hold a special Veterans Day Assembly at 8:30 in the LPO gymnasium.  Families and community members who have served in the military are warmly invited to attend so that we may recognize their service.  Please let us know if you have served or are currently serving  in the military by calling our school office.  

📚 Parent–Teacher Conferences

Parent–Teacher Conferences will be held on November 19th AND 20th from 3:00-6:00p.m.  Your child’s advisor will be reaching out soon to schedule a conference with you.  This is a wonderful opportunity to discuss your child’s progress, celebrate achievements, and set goals for the remainder of the year. Your involvement plays a key role in your child’s success

📅 Attendance Matters

Consistent attendance is essential for student success. Please make every effort to have your child at school on time each day (8:00a.m.), unless they are ill. If your child must be absent, remember to contact the school office to report the absence so as to avoid a truancy. Together, we can help build habits of responsibility and commitment.

📢 Stay Connected:
We believe that strong communication between school and home is essential for student success. Here are a few ways to stay informed.

• Newsletters/Emails: Be sure to check your inbox for updates from teachers and me (monthly).  

• Schoology: This application allows you to stay up on your child’s academic performance in each course, as well as view other school updates.  Ask your child for a quick tutorial!

• Websites: 

  • DISTRICT: lposd.org

  • LPOHS: Lake Pend Oreille Alternative High School

• Our school’s LPOHS Student Handbook 2025-2026.docx provides additional information regarding procedures and policies.

🍁 Looking Ahead

As we move toward the Thanksgiving season, I want to express my gratitude for our amazing students, dedicated staff, and supportive families. Thank you for making LPO such a special place to learn and grow.  Wishing you all a wonderful November filled with gratitude and connection.

Sincerely,

Chris Davis, LPOHS Principal
