Welcome Incoming 9th Graders!
Visit our new Class of 2024 Portal. It contains a great deal of information that will help support you as you transition to LAHS this fall.
If you are an incoming 9th grader, please take the survey on the Portal. The information you input will help us better meet your technology needs.
Every year, LAHS recognizes members of the senior class who have received scholarships and awards from community organizations, colleges and universities, as well as from the LAHS staff. Although we were not able to hold our traditional ceremony in the theater, we wanted to share this linked slideshow with our entire community. It includes the awards and names of seniors who received them, as well as some brief videos and recordings about some of the awards.
We are proud of the recognized members of the class of 2020 for their accomplishments, and we are proud of the entire class of graduates for their many and diverse achievements.

Wellness
School-based Mental Health and Wellness
Emotional wellness helps determine our capacity to handle stress, relate to others and make good choices. At MVLA, wellness is a way of seeing and making decisions that connect physical health, mental health, and learning. Wellness works best in a culture of kindness and respect in which we watch out for each other. There is a saying that it takes a village - and we are the village. Each person associated with MVLA plays a role in student wellness and makes a difference in each other’s emotional safety and wellbeing.
Mental health promotion, school infrastructure, and mental health intervention services support the mental, behavioral, and social-emotional health of students and further students academic achievement. Students’ and parents’ trust, connection, and participation in the school setting is pivotal to student mental health and wellbeing.
We share and update information and online resources to support our students and each other towards emotional wellness on our dedicated webpage, found under the "Education" resources.
