We are excited to welcome students to school on Tuesday, September 8th! Please review helpful startup information posted below (also shared via SchoolDay) as we prepare for the coming school year!
FINAL 2026 REPORT CARD PICK-UP
- Any students who did not pick up their final report cards in June may do so the week of Monday, Aug. 31st to Thursday, Sept. 3 from 8am to 3pm in the LHSS main office.
- Please enter the school using the front doors. Other areas of the school are not accessible at this time.
2026-2027 STUDENT TIMETABLES
- 2026-2027 timetables will be sent to students’ WRDSB Gmail on Thursday Sept 3rd (last names A-L) and Friday, September 4th (last names M-Z).
- NOTE – 2026-2027 timetables will be sent to students’ WRDSB Gmail over the course of two days on September 3rd and 4th.
- Emails will come from lhs-attendance@wrdsb.ca – please check junk/spam folders if you don’t receive them.
- Students new to WRDSB this fall – your school email accounts will not activate until you have attended school in person. If we have contact info (personal or caregiver email), we will send your timetable to that address. Otherwise, to receive your timetable, please come to the main office on Tuesday before heading to your homeroom.

**New lockers are assigned each year. If you left items in your old locker in June, those items have been bagged and can be returned to students during the first week of school.
LHSS PARENT/CAREGIVER & STUDENT HANDBOOK
Please note that we have updated and created an electronic version of our LHSS Parent and Student Handbook – this can be found on the LHSS school website. This includes important updated information regarding LHSS’ Mobile Device Policy for students as well as Parking and Drop Off Information.
