Lancaster High School

The following Students of the Month for August have modeled our school’s core values—showing respect, responsibility, kindness, and a positive attitude toward learning. Being nominated means that your child’s teachers and staff have noticed their hard work, leadership, and commitment to excellence. We are proud of your child’s accomplishments and the example they set for their peers. Please join us in celebrating this achievement and encouraging them to continue striving for success.Congratulations to the Students of the Month.
