There's a monthly meetng of the LHS Alumni Association that is set for Saturday, but the time is changed from the usual 9:30 a.m. hour to the afternoon, 4 p.m. to 5 p.m., according to the LHSAA calendar on the LHS website.  I usually get an email that confirms the meeting date and time, but that has not happened as of this writing.

The location is The Cafe in the Heights across the street from the campus on North Broadway.

I did get an email reminder last week for the fundraiser Dodger game, ticket at $20, is on for Sunday, July 31, 2011, at 1 p.m.  See the website or sidebar link here for more information.

Lincoln Alumni Meeting tomorrow, Lincoln at Belmont tonight

There's an alumni meeting tomorrow at the Cafe in the Heights on North Broadway across the street from the campus beginning at 9:30 a.m.

There's also a varsity football game tonight (Away game) at Belmont, at 7pm- and this is the old Belmont that we all know, not the "new"Belmont that became "The Edward R. Roybal Learning Center."

FACULTY, ALUMNI OR NOT, WELCOME TO MEETINGS
And like I said, maybe not to precisely, but the Alumni Association tries to help students and address what it can for assistance, but maybe teachers think it's only alumni that can come to meetings and even at that, there's still only the same very small hard-working faculty contingent attending meetings and handling activities.

Faculty members don't have to wait for a need to make a request from the organization for equipment, money or other materials to make an appearance at a meeting or two, but the observation is that this situation happens to be the only certain time that a visit happens.

All faculty members (you who don't have to be alumni) are also welcome to attend, maybe just to check in to let us know what's changed in the school, or to tell us how we can all work to help them do a better job handling the job of educating students.

Too often the opportunity for expanded involvement of willing people is overlooked when the job could be shared among many in trying to achieve a goal of helping students of Lincoln High obtain a better education.

An earlier photo posted here showed a shot of LHS from City Hall- to compare the view, here's ths same view in a wide angle shot. But to most people away from our area, we are located "downtown."

LHS Alumni Association Meeting This Saturday

It's time for the September editiion of the LHS Alumni Association meeting happening this Saturday, 9:30 am, at "The Cafe In The Heights" across the street from LHS on North Broadway. If you remember where the old fire station was that used to provide us with the 10 am, last-Friday-of-the-month, air raid siren function exercises, done city-wide similtaneously, then a few doors away from there you will find the Cafe.

(photo at right is telephoto view of LHS from City Hall tower)

Linocoln has been in session a month already and most of the LAUSD started this past Monday. That 5 day shortening of the school calendar is one reason for a short Fall semester.

There's not much to tell about the LHS experience at the moment, but there's lots going on with the teachers' union and the District concerning test score significance and teacher evaluations. All that is for a separate blog entry but as for Alumni matters, you will have to check the LHS Alumni link in the sidebar.

One matter that's been an ongoing condition with the Alumni Association is the sparse membership or even contact with teachers here who are alumni, and there's a lot. Of course, things get busy for teachers, but there might be a better condition produced for all if there was a little more presence of current alumni faculty in the association. Just an observation that's not anything new.

We do have several teacher alumni who DO attend meetings and give another perspective to the needs and conditions that school environment produces, and that one very postive feature of faculty participation. This participation would not even have to be as a member but an occasional visit to give us all some idea of what the current LHS is all about.

As usual, the meetings are open and anyone is welcome to attend, give comments and share ideas, or just hear what others have to provide. There's a football season underway with the food concession stand on the Visitor's side operated by the Alumni Association. Volunteering to help is always very useful for before, during and after the games.

SOME NEWS FOR LHS Alumni- An Alumni Association January Meeting This Saturday morning

Time for another meeting of the Alumni Association- 9:30 am in the Student Cafeteria- and the reminder is that this is the meeting where the group photo is taken of all those attending, so be forewarned. You don't have to be a dues-paying member to show up for the meetings, and it would be fine to come by to see what's going on (and get into the picture, too.).

The February Valentine's Dance that coming up is one topic and so will be the Day at the Races event coming in Santa Anita soon afterwards. There was a Shakey's Fundraising Night to be happening in Alhambra this month, but there is not much publicity, if any, at least any I have seen, and it may fizzle. So much for continuing communication. But this year is just starting out. There will be some Dodger nights as fundraisers this summer.

So remember the meeting is at the campus with unflattering mustard yellow paint job- it's ugly but it's durable. For a different view with a different color, go to the classmates.com photos of the school for that basic beige we were used to.

Well, come on down and check things for yourself.

ALTERNATIVE: SEE A CONGRESSMAN IN PERSON
There's a "Coffee with the Congressman" meeting Saturday at Glassell Park with Xavier Becerra at 11am in the Community Center at Verdugo and Eagle Rock Blvd. It's actually inside the Storage center structure, a pretty nice setup that is hidden from the outside. The entrance is at the rear by the driveway. It's an hour long session and if you are in the area you might stop by and hear what the Congressman has to say.
