in a comprehensive knowledge and activity based educational program
ranging from the college-bound student to technical employment

and problem solving, this program will provide the student with
an understanding of the impact of technology on individuals,
society and the environment. Through the use of computers
and other high tech tools of instruction, students learn to work
effectively as individuals and as team members to select the
appropriate technology to solve problems. New LFHS Woodshop considered one of the best in the state! See Why… Scout Dog House - Get yours now! Archived Stories: Toys for Tots 2008 Read
