Good Evening:
I am writing to inform you that there was a non-school related incident of violence that took place several hours after school off-campus.

The incident took place close by to the school campus and was heard by the athletes practicing in the fields/courts behind the school.

Lynn Police responded to the incident and investigated.

In an abundance of caution, practices for Lynn English athletic teams were stopped and students were sent home.

Clinicians will be available at the school tomorrow for any student that would like to speak with a clinician.

Student and staff safety is always at the forefront of our work as a school and district.

Thank you,
Dr. Braga

Good Afternoon LEHS Families:

I hope everyone is having a great day.

Yesterday afternoon, we had a staff member who fell at the school and was transported by ambulance. The staff member is ok and is in good spirits.

I also wanted to remind families about the ACCESS testing that will start tomorrow. Below is the communication that was sent to families on January 4, 2023.

This message is to inform families about the ACCESS for English Language Learner (ELL) assessment that will take place this month.

There will be a few changes to the schedule this month because of the exam.

ACCESS for ELLs is an English language proficiency test that measures students’ academic English language skills.

If your child was identified as an ELL, your child can have English as a second language instruction, in addition to taking other classes.

ELLs take an English language proficiency test every year.

Testing helps teachers understand whether students have the language skills they need to fully participate in the classroom.

Teachers use ACCESS for ELLs test scores as they decide how best to teach your child.

Test scores also help teachers track students’ progress in learning academic English and help schools decide what English language support services to provide.

All English Language Learners at LEHS will report to school to complete the ACCESS for ELLs on the following dates:

· Part 1 of the ACCESS for ELLs on Wednesday, January 11, 2023

· Part 2 of the ACCESS for ELLs on Wednesday, January 18, 2023

All other students at LEHS (students who are NOT ELLs) will work asynchronously on both testing days and work from home by completing work through Schoology.

All students in the Life Skills program will report to LEHS and follow their typical Wednesday schedule.

Thank you and have a great day,

With the second quarter underway, we wanted to send a quick reminder about the 4-day rule.

Any student with 4 or more unexcused absences for a quarter, receives a D- for grades.

It is essential that students attend homeroom each day to make sure the student is marked present. Homeroom is from 7:45am to 8:00am each day.

If a student is late to school, the student will go to the Lincoln Foyer to receive a late pass. The student will then be marked tardy for the day.

If you believe your student's absence should be excused, please have your student bring their excused absence note to their homeroom teacher. The homeroom teacher will provide the note to the student's Vice Principal.

As a reminder, if you believe there was an error with attendance for your student from the first quarter, please email your student's Vice Principal or Guidance Counselor.

Yesterday, several hours after school, a concerning situation unfolded outside in which a LEHS student was injured. We have been in contact with families and are working with the Lynn Police Department, along with the other schools that the students attend.

Going forward, we plan to increase staffing and supervision in order to maintain the priority of student safety during after school events.
