  3. College & Career Readiness • “College” and/or “Career”: students leaving LC with the ability to pursue the college and/or career option of their choice that leads to a post-secondary credential: BA, AA, high-skill certificates, work-readiness credential or apprenticeship. • Readiness: The level of academic preparation necessary for a student to enroll and succeed without remediation in both credit-bearing, college courses, and/or, enter the workforce ready to learn and succeed at job specific skills. This level of academic preparation is the same in both options.

  4. Choosing Classes We build our master schedule based on student interest and need. It is important for students to make the most informed choices now so we build the proper classes.

Building a Schedule School Board & LC Policy states that ALL students will maintain a schedule of no less than classes. 6 Students must sign up for the required classes listed on your registration form. If a student has not finished credits in Art, CTE, Fitness, or World Language – consider these classes for your electives.
