PUBLIC NOTICE – SAFETY CONCERN
Today, January 5, 2024, The Union County Sheriff’s Office reported that a slender, dark skinned male in a 2018 brown Chevy Equinox with New York plates pulled up next to students during the high school lunch period and asked them to get in his vehicle. Law enforcement responded to the scene and resolved the situation directly with the individual. LHS administrators were notified and additional law enforcement patrols were requested and will be patrolling the area and on site. Please visit with your student(s) about the potential danger of getting into vehicles with people they do not know.
For additional information on how to talk with your student about the potential dangers you may access this resource.

Happy 2024 to everyone at La Grande School District! We look forward to a successful year. This year, we encourage you to show self-compassion as you think of your New Year’s Resolutions. When we show compassion for ourselves, we allow space for changes, mistakes, or missteps and we open ourselves up to future possibilities. Showing self-compassion is a healthy way to start a successful and happy 2024.
We also encourage you to reflect on this past year. How have you changed from the beginning of 2023 to now? What did you enjoy about 2023? Click here for some great questions to ask yourself as you reflect.
