Tonight, our Law Enforcement & Corrections students took part in Scenario Night, working through realistic emergency and real-world situations designed to prepare them for careers in public safety.

A huge thank you to our local law enforcement agencies, corrections officers, community members, and student volunteers who helped make this hands-on learning experience possible. A special shoutout also goes to instructor Doug McMullen, whose dedication and preparation make nights like this possible while helping students build the skills and confidence needed for these real-life scenarios.

Here are a few photos from the action and learning throughout the evening!

There is something exciting about seeing students proudly hold up the names of the places and opportunities they are headed to next.

Our PM students gathered outside the front entrance to celebrate Decision Day 2026 and the adventures ahead of them. Whether they are heading into the workforce, continuing their education, joining the military, or pursuing skilled trades and apprenticeships, each sign represents hard work, growth, and goals becoming reality.

We are incredibly proud of these students and cannot wait to see where their journeys take them next. Congratulations, Class of 2026!

Today the heat was on in Culinary as students competed in the Pasta Challenge to earn a spot on the menu for next week’s Gold Hammer event!

Residential Construction students stepped in as judges, tasting each dish, hearing the teams describe their creations, and giving feedback before selecting the top four dishes, two from the AM session and two from the PM session.

Now the winning teams are gearing up for the big event and getting ready to bring their dishes to life next week. Check out a few highlights below and view the full photo album at lisd.us/photos!
