Trivia Question for today:
What year was the first Black History Month celebrated?
We extend our deepest sympathies to Dr. Delbert Harris' family. Dr. Harris was a graduate of LCHS class of '47. He was instrumental in founding the Lebanon Education Foundation and was a Hall of Fame member. https://meridithfuneralhome.com/obituary/delbert-l-harris/?fbclid=IwAR3pQ8Vr-HZGJnYbcmGYQmi2cVJSQQkKz6nsJ00D2k9S1-g92uLsWsm_yxU

Good Morning Lebanon!
Today is Thursday, January 28th, 2021
This Day in History:
On Jan. 28, 1973, a cease-fire officially went into effect in the Vietnam War, a day after the signing of the Paris Peace Accords by the United States, North Vietnam and South Vietnam.
Interesting fact:
In 1917, Scott Air Force Base was opened just seven miles to the south of Lebanon. It was one of the very first of the new air bases in the country brought on by the onset of World War I. 90 years later, Scott Air Force Base continues strong as one of the largest employers in metropolitan St. Louis. Today, Scott houses three global command headquarters for the military. Many active and retired Air Force personnel make their homes in Lebanon.

Attention LCUSD 9 families!
Beginning Monday, February 1st, LCUSD 9 will be having 4 days of attendance for ALL students who have not signed up for remote learning. We will continue the same daily time schedules and days of in- person instruction on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; with full remote on Wednesdays for ALL students. Please understand that we will try to social distance as best we can, but this will not be possible in many classrooms. We know that in order to stay open, our staff must social distance; whereas some students will not be able to. Also, it will not be possible to social distance on buses in the mornings and afternoons. We encourage families who are able, to ride or walk to school if you are concerned about the inability to social distance on buses.
Good afternoon to all of our students and families!
Throughout February, LCUSD 9 will be celebrating Black History Month. The Black History Month theme for 2021 is "The Black Family: Representation, Identity, and Diversity." We would like to invite all of our district families to share with us some of your family pictures
