LHS students have been participating in in-person learning now since the beginning of March

Being back learning in person has brought new life to many aspects of LHS and school extracurriculars are no exception. The Lafayette Student Council is now holding virtual meetings and beginning to plan activities for the LHS student body. With the upcoming Spring Shenanigans event in March as well as upcoming student council elections for the remainder of the 2020-2021 school year as well as the 2021-2022 school year the SCA is now back in action.
