Principal's Message

Dear Cardinal Community,
 
With immense pride, I welcome you to the 2024-2025 School Year. I am excited about the start of another school year. Our staff is looking forward to continuing to make great things possible for our students and community. I am eager to work with you as an education partner to support your child’s success. 
 
Student Handbook
Our current student handbook is located on our website. The handbook includes essential school information.
 
Student Schedules Pick Up 
We are hosting our annual Back to the Nest event on August 13 from 3pm-7pm. Back to the Nest is a drop-in event where students can pick up their schedules, take campus tours, and purchase items from our student store. A Back to the Nest flyer with a price list is included in this packet. 
 
Breakfast with Benson 
To help facilitate community dialogue, parents and guardians are invited to “Breakfast with Benson” on the first Thursday of each month between 9-10 am. During these meetings, I present information on important educational topics and provide time for parent feedback and conversation.  These meetings will continue to be held virtually. A Microsoft Teams link will be sent each month to connect to the meeting.  
 
School Activities - Keep Informed 
All major school events are posted regularly on our school’s calendar on our website, http://lchs.egusd.net/. Our Instagram and Facebook pages are also hubs of information.  I will send Cardinal Connection weekly newsletters via Synergy Mail to inform you about events and the great things Laguna Creek students accomplish. Reading the weekly newsletters, school website, Facebook, Instagram, and Synergy emails are the best ways to stay up-to-date on all that is happening at Laguna Creek High School. It is essential for you to provide us with a working email to keep you informed. You can log into your Synergy ParentVUE portal and update your information. An event listing is included in this packet to help with your planning. Any event changes will be communicated to our community. 
 
Facility Enhancements  
Our wonderful 43 acres has been going through facility improvements this summer.  Classrooms and infrastructure have been improved.  Additional work is scheduled for this school year, and we are working closely with our facilities team to mitigate any disruption. However, we expect temporary classroom shifts throughout the year as the classrooms are modernized in phases. We are excited about the modernization work and look forward to the improvements.  
 
Thank you for the privilege of partnering with you in educating your children. I am looking forward to working with you this school year.  
 
 
In partnership,
 
Mark Benson
Principal Laguna Creek H.S.
