LACHSA PARENT COUNCIL
IMPORTANT:  PARENT VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Greetings!

We are in desperate need for parents to help facilitate the Student Shadowing opportunities for our incoming (2011-12) students.  Here's the current schedule:

Thursday, 3/25 - Friday, 4/8 excluding Wednesday (3/23), Monday (3/28), Thursday (3/31), and Monday (4/4)

All we need is one parent every morning from 7:30am - 8am.  Just 1/2 hour.  The table is set up outside the main office.  The packets with name badges are ready to go each day.  They will be on Caroline's desk next to the pretty white flower plant.  Just get them out to each student as they arrive.

 

The existing students who will be taking the new students have been told to be at the table for check in. 

If you are able to help on any of these days, please email lachsavolunteers@gmail.com ASAP.

Below is information describing Student Shadowing.   

 
What is Student Shadowing?
 
LACHSA partners a current student with an incoming student to act as "host" for the school day to this incoming student.  Incoming students are then given the opportunity to experience LACHSA classes in its day-to-day operation - from the students' perspective. 

We are expecting at LEAST 150 incoming students will want to do this in the next three weeks.  That's 75 a week, and we will have to coordinate the hosts and the shadows.  The shadow period is to allow students with multiple offers, a chance to see OUR school in action and to see if LACHSA  is right for them.We would like to partner current freshmen and sophomore students to the incoming class, as they are more closely associated with the courses and experiences that will affect these incoming students.
  
More information on student shadowing is available on the LACHSA website - click HERE. 

 
Thank you for your continued support.  Your help is GREATLY appreciated.
  
Sincerely,

 

LACHSA Parent Council
