Eighth Grade Transition

8th Grade Family Night

Students and families are invited to attend Lake City High School's 8th Grade Family Night at Lake City High School April 10th, at 5:30pm in the gym. After an information session in the gym, there will be time for students and their families to explore activities and clubs that Lake City has to offer!

Course Request Information

For students in the CDA School District, high school counselors visited the middle schools during the week of April 7th to discuss information relating to high school and course requests for next year. Families can review this slide deck to see the information that was provided to students.

Class of 2029 Course Requests

The Class of 2029 (incoming freshman) who are attending Lake City High School in the fall of 2025, should fill out and submit a copy of the Course Request sheet below. This is how students request classes for the following year. Please note: this is a request for courses, not a created schedule. If you would like to learn more about course descriptions for our courses, please visit the CDA Schools Course Description Handbook.

Students interested in band courses should review these handout with more information of Band Courses and Orchestra Courses to determine the best course for them and if audition is needed.

IN-DISTRICT students will receive a Course Request from their middle schools to take home and fill out with parents/guardians. High school counselors will collect and input Course Requests with students at their middle school in mid-April.

OUT OF DISTRICT students will be asked to submit a Course Request after confirmation of registration and enrollment is completed.
