Lowndes High School

LHS Class Cabinet 2026 invites you to support Conner Wisham’s Road to Recovery from Guillain Barre Syndrome (GBS).

Conner was diagnosed with GBS this summer on July 2nd; within days of diagnosis, he became completely paralyzed. Conner’s Viking Spirit and positive perspective has carried him through treatments that have given him the ability to move again and walk on his own as he pushes daily to get back to his normal, loving self.

We are asking our Viking family to assist Conner’s family in offsetting their recent, current, and future costs of Conner’s hospital stays, physical therapy, and travel expenses with the purchase of a BBQ dinner plate or to make a donation.

All profits of the BBQ dinner sales go directly to Conner Wisham.

Mrs. Stack's Government students returned from Fall Break with literacy in mind. Students created mind maps that included power testing terms and examples of prompts from topics previously studied. They also reviewed learning targets and made connections between key concepts in instructional units.

Mr. Breit and Mrs. Brooks traveled to Atlanta last week to attend a TAC meeting as members of the Georgia Teacher Advisory Committee for State Superintendent Woods. We’re proud to have them representing Lowndes High School at the state level!

Mrs. Croft and Mrs. Baird’s Astronomy and Earth Systems classes took an exciting field trip to the Kennedy Space Center to explore the wonders of space up close! From walking among towering rockets in the Rocket Garden to experiencing immersive spacecraft exhibits and cockpit simulations, our students dove deep into the astronomy topics they’ve been studying in class.

They saw impressive rockets of all shapes and sizes, learned about space missions like Starliner and Boeing’s contributions, and even got a hands-on feel for astronaut gear and space travel technology.

This trip brought the classroom lessons to life, fueling a passion for space exploration and science careers. We’re proud of our students for reaching for the stars—literally! 🌟

A group of talented students from The Viking Cantors took part in GMEA’s District 8 Honor Choir at Ware County High School today.  These students rehearsed a program of music all day which culminated in a wonderful performance.  They joined in with our friends and colleagues from Hahira Middle School, Lowndes Middle School, and Pine Grove Middle School.

Congratulations, Addilyn Presley!
Lowndes High School sophomore Addilyn Presley has been selected as one of just 79 students statewide — from a pool of 1,235 applicants — to serve on State School Superintendent Richard Woods’ 2025–2026 Student Advisory Council.
Throughout the year, Addilyn and her fellow council members will meet with Superintendent Woods to share feedback on how state policies affect students, discuss education issues, and participate in service projects that benefit Georgia schools and communities.
“I’m really happy and excited that I get to advocate for my fellow Lowndes High School students and friends,” Addilyn said. “I hope to better learn how our school system works and to make a difference for other students.”
The Student Advisory Council provides a direct way for Georgia students to share their perspectives with state leaders and help shape the future of education in Georgia.
Congratulations, Addilyn — we’re proud to have you representing the #OneLowndes family at the state level! #OneMission #BetterTogether

Mrs. Taylor’s Ceramics 1 is collaborating with Mrs. Penland’s 3rd grade class at Pine Grove Elementary to create clay monsters! The younger Vikings studied descriptive writing and described themselves with lots of adjectives, which were shared with a high schooler who they were paired with, and our high schoolers are creating a monster inspired by their little Vikings! Stay tuned for the reveal in the coming weeks when our potters share their monsters with their young friends!

LHS HOSA members had an incredible time volunteering with the Miracle League — cheering on players, lending a hand, and making memories together.
