Here are ways your LLHS keeps our families and supporters in the know about what's happening: 

E-mail Newsletter

During the school year, Lakeside e-mails a mobile-friendly weekly newsletter, called Warrior E-News, written with current Lakeside families in mind. It provides current information about events, opportunities and news for students and parents, including hotlinks to valuable info. The newsletter is sent out Tuesday afternoons to subscribed e-mail addresses; a link to the newsletter is also Tweeted and posted on Facebook.

 

Subscribe and see past issues from the "View/Subscribe to Weekly E-News" at right.
 
 

Lakeside on SwiftK12

 
We use this notification tool on the PowerSchool platform (see more info here) for school or activity cancellations or delays.
 
 

Lakeside on Twitter

We tweet non-emergency content—from important reminders to celebrations of outstanding performances. 
 
Please Note: You do not need to have a Twitter account to receive our Tweets!
 
There are three ways to read Tweets from @LakesideLuthHS:
  1. Look to the Twitter feed on llhs.org. Scroll through the most recent Tweets on our home page. With this method, you must seek the Tweets; no notifications are sent to you. Our Tweets automatically post to the LLHS Facebook page as well.
  2. To receive @LakesideLuthHS Tweets as cell phone text messages without having your own Twitter account: "Fast Follow" by texting the words "follow LakesideLuthHS" (without quotation marks; be sure to include a space after the word "follow") to text recipient 40404. You will immediately receive a generic message from Twitter that you ignore; you will also then receive the most recent Lakeside Tweet. When these two Tweets come to your phone, you know you're signed up. All future Tweets will be sent to your cell phone as text messages. You can stop delivery anytime by texting "stop".
  3. If you already have your own Twitter account: Follow @LakesideLuthHS. Do you want LLHS Tweets to be pushed as a notification without getting every Tweet pushed as well? See instructions here on how to set @LakesideLuthHS as a push without needing to allow all.

Twitter's help page for fast follow commands is here

Lakeside in your congregation

The Federation Connection is a monthly publication e-mailed to each of the Lakeside Federation—plus several other—congregations.

While not mailable to individuals, an e-version of the pub can be subscribed to at <issuu.com/llhs>.

 

 

Cell phones and other phone numbers

It is very important for Lakeside to have your current phone number(s). You supply "emergency contact information" at registration, but if any changes take place during the school year, please notify the school immediately. "Update your info"  at the link on the blue menu above right.
