La Cañada High School Home

This summer, engage in some healthy use of tech as well as some breaks. The LCUSD Tech Team created a series of tech experiments for you to try out as a family. You'll find one for each week of summer. Give it a try and let us know the results!

As we near the end of another remarkable school year, we’re thrilled to welcome you back to campus to connect with teachers and explore the spaces where your students learn and grow every day.

The La Cañada Unified School District administrative team has selected Mr. Brent Kuszyk to receive the 2025 Golden Apple Award. Sponsored by the Association of California School Administrators, the award honors outstanding community leaders throughout the state.

La Canada High School (LCHS) and LCHS 7/8 have received five honors from the American Scholastic‬ Press Association (ASPA) Scholastic Yearbook and Magazine Awards, including First Place honors in the‬‭ Junior/Senior High Schools Large Schools Category for the 2024‬‭ Omega‬‭ yearbook: “Remember When”,‬ The Spartan‬‭ , LCHS’s newspaper, and‬‭ The Ink and The Iris‬‭ , the school’s literary arts magazine–all‬ student-designed and developed publications.‬

The Cañada Auxiliary of Professionals, on behalf of the Assistance League of Flintridge, presented a $28,000 donation to LCFEF to fund its “Support Our Teachers and Staff After the Eaton Fires” campaign.

Monday night, fire crews descended upon the LCHS campus and camped in the gym to escape the cold winter night. Community members turned out as well to say thank you with dinner, dessert, and snacks. Thank you to the firefighters and thank you to the LC community! Click to view the photos.

Our LCUSD family and community have expressed needs for support and wanted to offer support. To assist in that effort, we've built a webpage with resources for families and staff affected by the fires as well as a landing page to see how you can help.

Spartans, thank you for taking your learning seriously! Over the course of the first semester, LCHS students have shown improvement arriving to class on time and ready to learn, and our numbers of students tardy to class have decreased. But we're still committed to having every student being in class on time.

Starting in Semester 2, LCHS will be piloting a new feature in Aeries, alerting parents when students are marked tardy to class. Similar to the phone call alerts generated when students are absent, parents will now get one phone call noting the period(s) when the student was tardy.

Why send these alerts? These calls support LCHS's class attendance policy. Awareness is our goal: as we partner with LCHS families, we're committed to ensuring that students are safe, supervised, and dedicated to showing up and doing their best in class.

Congratulations to the Spartan Boys Varsity Football team, who were chosen as a runner-up in the SoFi Game Changers Contest. This award nets them a $10,000 prize for new equipment. Congrats, team!

A reminder from Assistant Principal Tobin that all students must attend at least 50% of the school day in order to participate in any activities after school.
