Hello Sophomores and Sophomore Parents,
On Tuesday, November 10th at 6pm in the LHS auditorium, we will be hosting Susan Fream, the principal of Massanutten Regional Governor's School, for an informational presentation. If you are interested in hearing more about MRGS, please plan to attend with a parent!
Massanutten Regional Governor’s School for Environmental Science and Technology is one of the 19 Academic Year Governor’s Schools in the state of Virginia. MRGS is operated as a joint school serving the counties of Page, Rockingham, and Shenandoah, as well as Harrisonburg City. Massanutten Regional Governor’s School is housed in southern Shenandoah County at Triplett Tech.
Students apply to MRGS during their sophomore year, and if accepted, attend during their junior and senior years.
Thank you,
LHS Counseling Department
The FFA National Convention looks a little different this year. Luray FFA members and their advisors participated in a virtual session on October 28th. Members are also able to participate in a wide variety of events and activities on the online platform. Members across the nation might not be able to gather in Indianapolis but they can still celebrate!
This is an important message from Page County Public Schools:
In preparation for high school students to return to school, beginning November 16, 2020, we are providing you with the School Health Attestation form in advance that may be printed off, signed, scanned, and emailed back, or your child may bring it on their first day back. By signing the School Health Attestation Form (that states you will not send your child to school if they have any Covid-related symptoms) you will eliminate the need to sign Daily Health Slips. To email the form back to Page County High School, please use PCHS@pagecounty.k12.va.us, or for Luray High School email the completed form back to Pam Nichols at pnichols@pagecounty.k12.va.us

The LHS FCCLA and Family and Consumer Science students provided a "Nacho Average School Year" lunch to teachers and staff while learning about safety and covid protocols for serving and preparing food. This was a great learning experience for students and FCCLA members.
The PSAT will be given at Luray High School on Saturday, October 17th 2020. Arrive at 8am and the test should end by 1pm.
(PSAT scores are used to give students an idea of areas to improve upon before taking the SAT and only students/parents see PSAT scores, not colleges. Sophomores considering applying to Massanutten Regional Governor's School are highly encouraged to take the PSAT. Juniors that take the PSAT are automatically entered in the National Merit Scholarship program.)
Masks will be required and please bring #2 pencils with you, as well as a scientific calculator. We will have some calculators available, but there may not be enough for everyone.
The cost of the PSAT test is $7. If you are an 11th grader and receive free or reduced lunch, you will qualify for a fee waiver and will not be charged a fee--please email your counselor to be placed on the list for the test. Please mail or drop off your $7 payment to LHS, 243 Bulldog Drive, Luray, VA 22835 before the day of the test. (If you write a check, please make it out to Luray High School).
Please let us know if you have any questions. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, October 17th!
