Lowndes High School

🧙‍♀️👻 BREAKING (BOO) NEWS!
Ewing Social Studies teachers—with a little help from our spook-tacular Beta Club—are brewing up something mysterious and magical for a special group of kiddos this Friday! 🎃
It’s going to be a howling-good time… stay tuned for the big reveal! 🕸️

Don't call 911...call Krav Maga!! Lowndes High FCCLA hosted Mr. Bobby Cumby of Krav Maga Valdosta for lessons in self-defense. Students learned how to pummel the pads, break a hold around the waist from behind, and to leverage weight to free yourself from an attacker. Thank you Mr. Cumby for teaching us some new skills!

At Lowndes High, creativity has a new home! 🧶✨
The Valhallan Forge Crafting Club invites all students to learn new skills, create meaningful projects, and support our community through hands-on service.
Join us Wednesday, Nov 5 after school in Room B225 for our launch event!
We can’t wait to forge something special together. ❤️

🦞 Zoology students wrapped up their unit on Arthropods with a crayfish dissection! While these specimens weren’t on the menu, students gained a hands-on understanding of crayfish anatomy. Now, the next time they catch one, they’ll have a deeper appreciation for its internal and external structures and how they function!

Congratulations to the Lowndes High bocce ball teams! LHS had 4 teams competing against athletes from all over Georgia in the state Special Olympics games. Our teams earned 2 silver medals and 2 bronze medals. Way to go Vikings!

LHS alum and soon to be VSU graduate, Shelby Hammack, gave a presentation on her career as a tattoo artist at Fringe Tattoo Studio, and how her experiences in AP Art at LHS and gaining her art degree from VSU helped shape her career path.
Shelby demonstrated using her tattoo machine on oranges, and then students were allowed to try her machine on fake skin used by tattoo artists for practice.
Thank you, Shelby for this unique experience and for giving back to your school! See more of her art on her Instagram: @prodigal.sun.tattoos.
