Social Studies Staff Directory

To contact faculty who teach Social Studies courses at LHS, please use the links below.

Many teachers use Google Classroom as their primary web interface with students. Please check with your student(s) to see if this is the case in their classes. Google Classroom is a way to retrieve assignments and course material when a student is unable to be in class. Some teachers have secondary websites outside of Google Classroom. These are indicated below. Department grading guides are here.

LHS also uses Aspen Portal for viewing information about students’ grades and attendance. Information about Aspen Portal is here.
