In response to the rapidly evolving situation around the coronavirus (COVID-19) and guidance from public health organizations, the College Board is canceling the May 2, 2020, SAT administration. Makeup exams for the March 14 administration (scheduled March 28) are also canceled. The College Board will provide refunds to all students who are registered for May, whose March test centers were closed, or who do not receive March scores due to an irregularity. (*please see attached email which was sent to students yesterday at approx. 5pm).

Together with our member schools and colleges, we will be flexible, thoughtful, and collaborative in exploring ways to continue to support student learning and provide opportunities to test during this challenging time.

• The College Board will be as flexible as possible to give students the best chance to show their skills and stay on the path to college.
• We'll provide future additional SAT testing opportunities for students as soon as feasible in place of canceled administrations.
• We have not yet canceled the June 6, 2020, SAT national administration and will continue to assess its status with the health and safety of students and educators as our top priority.
• In the coming days, the College Board will share additional information and details directly with registered students and test centers. A webpage with regularly posted information about the impact of the virus on the SAT can be found here.

It's been a record breaking year for grant requests. We asked students, teachers and staff to THINK BIG and they did! The Lake Forest High School Foundation celebrated its 18th annual Grant Day on Friday, February 28, 2019. As has been our tradition, Foundation Trustees roamed the halls of LFHS surprising grant recipients with the exciting news that their grants had been funded. Amidst smiling teachers and cheering students, 20 new grants totaling over $270 were awarded across 10 different curricular areas. Learn more.

Kyle became the head coach in 2011. He went on to win 142 games--the most in the program's history.  Ninety eight of those wins came in the last four years.  Moreover, he led the Scouts to three Regional championships in 2017, 2019, and 2020 and a Sectional championship in 2019 and was named the IBCA Head Coach of the Year in 2019--a well-deserved accolade for a job well done. Our thanks to you and your family.
