School Mission Statement

Logansport  High School serves to make a difference by teaching students to strive for excellence, serve others, and become positive leaders in our community.

From The Desk of Dr. Sims...

Dear Logansport High School Parents and Students,

As the summer days begin to end, I couldn't be more thrilled to welcome you all back to Logansport High School! I am incredibly excited and honored to be joining you as your new principal, and I look forward to working alongside each of you to make this a truly remarkable school year.

At Logansport High School, our mission statement guides everything we do: LHS serves to make a difference by teaching students to strive for excellence, serve others, and become positive leaders in our community. This year, we will embrace this mission with renewed vigor, empowering every student to reach their full potential, discover their passions, and contribute positively to the world around them. Together, we will create an environment where excellence is pursued, kindness is practiced, and leadership is nurtured.

We are eager to reconnect with you and share our plans for the upcoming year. Please mark your calendars for our Back to School Night on Monday, August 4th, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. This will be a wonderful opportunity to meet teachers, learn about classroom expectations, and get a feel for the vibrant learning environment at LHS. Also during this time, please take a moment to update your school contact information. This will ensure that we can communicate effectively throughout the year,

We also want to extend our sincere gratitude for your patience and understanding regarding the ongoing construction around the school. Your flexibility is greatly appreciated, and we promise to communicate any changes or important information related to construction in a timely manner. Our goal is to ensure a safe and smooth transition for everyone.

We deeply appreciate your involvement in your students' educational journeys. Your partnership is invaluable, and we believe that strong home-school connections are key to student success.

Here are a few important details to help you prepare for the first day of school:

  • Doors Open for Breakfast: 7:10 AM

  • School Day Begins: 7:30 AM

  • School Day Ends: 3:10 PM

Please note that more detailed information regarding student drop-off and pick-up points, specific Pre-K 3 & 4 drop-off and pickup times, and all other "all things LHS" will be communicated to you very soon. Keep an eye on your email for these important updates!

We are counting down the days until we can fill the halls of Logansport High School with the energy and enthusiasm of our students and staff. Get ready for a year of growth, discovery, and making a real difference!

Sincerely,

Dr. Joshua Sims
