These tickets were made available to football parents for purchase. No tickets will be available at the gate on Friday. Lakeside TV is broadcasting the game online via Pay Per View. They set the price at $30 to watch the game via Pay Per View. Here is the link to buy the game: https://iframe.dacast.com/b/181428/c/562328 #LHWolfNation

BUS TRANSPORTATION INFORMATION All students will be expected to maintain an established transportation routine to and from school each day. Students who travel to or from school by bus will be expected to ride the same bus to and from home. In some circumstances, students may need to be transported to a different location, such as another family member's home, on an approved bus route and stop, after school dismissal. This regular routine would likely be allowed. Any changes to student school bus transportation must be approved by building administration. Students will not be allowed to travel by bus with other students for social purposes such as staying overnight or over a weekend. Face-coverings are required for all bus drivers and passengers at all times. #LHWolfNation
