2023-2024 LHS Halloween Parade.

LHS students and staff members showed off their costumes in the annual LHS Halloween Parade, Wednesday, October 31st.  The parade participants displayed costumes ranging from pirates and skeletons to dinosaurs and TV and movie characters.

English teacher, Hannah McKenny who dressed up as Perry the Platypus, said it was a lot of fun.

“The parade is one of my favorite parts of this school year. It was the best. Leading off of the parade were us teachers: the party animals. We started and set the crazy tone for the rest of the parade. I had lots of fun. I threw some candy out to some kids, like smarties, dum-dums, tootsie roll pops– those are ‘the bomb.’ It was a great time– always one of my favorite things to do. 

The annual parade is a tradition and Health teacher Stephanie Root said she would enjoy seeing more students and staff participate in it.

“I love seeing everybody’s reactions as we walk around. We had some soldier boys behind us with music and a lot of kids smiled, laughed, and they were excited to see all the teachers who dressed up. I’d like to see more participation. I teach a lot of freshmen and I feel like when they’re coming into a new school, they’re more hesitant to experience goofy experiences like that. You only get four years of highschool to be fun and silly sometimes. Don’t be too cool for school.”

Below is a gallery of photos and a video link to see the parade.

About the Contributor
Good day, fellow adventurers! I'm Cian Bowers, a sophomore at the LHS. My interests include writing, animating, reading, acting, singing, listening to and creating music, drawing-- basically anything that involves using the right side of my brain! At least I think it's the right side of my brain... yeah, I could be wrong about that. Anyways, in my free time I enjoy working on creative projects for/with my friends, such as short stories, movies, drawing -gifts, and music. I also love hanging out with my friends and family in general, making the weirdest jokes known to humankind, and creating work that others can enjoy or relate to. Two dreams of mine are to start a punk-rock band and gain a stronger feel for the stage life, as well as finishing the story I've spent three whole years on, so I can finally move on to a new book . . . that would be nice. A few other things about me is that I LOVE horror/ thriller movies, books, and other forms of media. I also heavily enjoy music, my favorite genres varying from punk-rock, to alternative-rock, to lofi beats. Yep. I'm excited to write stories for journalism.
