AP Exam Registration Continues This Week!

Registration for the May 2018 Advanced Placement (AP) Exams continues through February
16! The cost is $68 per exam (cash, check, or credit card made payable to your High School or
​
you may pay online through your school's Webstore). The Late Fee is $55.00 per registration if
you register during the Late Registration Window, February 16, after 4:00 p.m. to March 7,
before 4:00 p.m.

All AP exam information can be found on the AP Exams web page, accessible from LHS’s
homepage, under the Academics tab: https://www.losdschools.org/domain/1704.
​ ​
Parents/Guardians are encouraged to review the materials too, though we strongly urge
students to be present when selecting exams, as mistakes are frequently made otherwise
(students know their course/exam titles and instructor “periods” best!).
Updates will continue to be posted in issues of this publication as well as on the AP Exams
webpage through May.
Please contact the LHS AP Coordinator, Lisa Oliva, [e-mail], if you have
​ ​
questions.
Note: Please be aware that "AP Exam" refers to the culminating exam offered in May, at the
conclusion of a student's year-long course of study in an AP class and from which a student
may earn college credit. "AP Exam" does not refer to any assessment that may be associated
​
with entry/enrollment in an AP course. For enrollment in an AP course, please see your
counselor.

THANKS!

Antigone: Spring Play
The LHS Performing Arts Dept. brings to the stage a new version of the Greek tragedy. This

country is forced to choose sides. Show dates are February 22, 23, 24 @ 7:00pm and February
24 @ 2:00pm Tickets at pacer-drama.org.

Congratulations Pacer SASEE Winner: Max Krueger
"The purpose of SASEE is to acknowledge and honor the remarkable work of both educators
and supporters of education who demonstrate the core philosophy of Rotary — 'Service Above
Self,'" says Rotarian Eric Allenbaugh, who co-chairs the SASEE Steering Committee with fellow
Rotarian Malcolm Mathes. "SASEE honorees exhibit giving more to life than they receive, and
serve as inspirational role models in our community."

MAX KRUEGER, a senior at Lakeridge High School, who serves as Associated Student Body
secretary/treasurer while maintaining a 4.0 GPA and participating on the Lakeridge swim team.
He also organized a Red Cross blood drive at Lakeridge and works with Hope Community
Church to gather donations for its food pantry, but he is being honored with a SASEE for his
work with the Columbia Regional Program.

FREE Play Smart –Youth Heart Screenings
​ ​ ​
Dates: March 14 & 15@ 8:00am-3:30pm
Location: Lakeridge High School

Providence Heart and Vascular Institute (PHVI) is pleased to offer, Play Smart –Youth Heart
​ ​ ​ ​ ​
Screenings Program, a free youth heart screenings program that has been extremely
​ ​ ​ ​
successful in screening over 18,346 youth and identifying 1,140 students or 7% (to date) for
​ ​​ ​ ​ ​
further follow-up and treatment. Young people with undiagnosed heart defects, especially
athletes, are susceptible to sudden cardiac arrest. Often there are no advance signs or
symptoms and most routine physical exams will not pick up the defects. An electrocardiogram
(EKG/ECG) usually is necessary to uncover signs of heart irregularities, something normally not
done in “well-child” checks or even some sports physicals. In an effort to protect the hearts of
area middle and high school students, Play Smart offers free painless, noninvasive heart-health
​ ​ ​​ ​ ​
checks to youth aged 12-18.
​ ​

Play Smart is partnering with Lakeridge High School to offer ALL students 12-18 years old free
​ ​
heart screening.
​

FREE Play Smart –Youth Heart Screenings @ Lakeridge High School: March 14 & 15
​ ​ ​ ​ ​
Must complete 2 heart screenings forms to receive free heart screening. (Attach pdf’s of
the two screening forms.)
● Play Smart site: www.playsmartgetscreened.org
​ ​ ​ ​
● Access video: Go to the Play Smart main page,
​
www.playsmartgetscreened.organd click on the hyperlinked "educational video" in
​ ​ ​
the middle of the page. This educational video takes you through the screening
​ ​
process. http://phsoregon.org/video/?view=926c2c60041d6x480x294
​

ALL forms must be turned in at the office prior to the screening.
