This morning, MPS was notified of a potential situation in town. The Minden Police Department notified the school, and we went into our "secure" protocol for about 15 minutes today. During the secure protocol, our students and staff are required to remain inside the building. However, business continued as usual until the all-clear was communicated to staff.
Daily, our doors remain locked throughout the school day. As a reminder, our school and local law enforcement agencies are in constant communication as a means to keep our students safe. We appreciate all that MPD does for us, and knowing that our kids and staff are safe.

Before and After School Pick-up: Working with MPD, we have some concerns about the pick-up and drop-off process at CLJ. Attached is a map and directions on what we need parents to do when coming to the school in the mornings and afternoons. We need everyone to be safe. Give yourself some extra time and look out for students coming and going from school.

Kuper Field archway project near completion! At the new archway gate entry points are now installed at the MHS football field/track!!! This was a HUGE project as these were fabricated from scratch largely by the MHS metals class. There were many individuals and local businesses that assisted with this project so it was a fantastic school and community partnership!! A special thanks goes out to the following: Bob Carlson, Rick Chramosta, Grayson Tool, Minden Machine, Vincent Sumstine, Chad Schmidt, Travis Dassinger, and all of the MHS students who worked on this project. You will be able to read more about this project in the Minden Courier in the near future!!!
