Seventh and Eighth grade lockers at LCMS do not have built in locks. A significant amount of school employee time and financial resources have been spent maintaining and distributing a supply of padlocks for student use. We believe that 7th and 8th grade students are more than capable of being responsible for supplying and keeping up with their own padlock for their assigned lockers at school. Ownership of the lock will further incentivize to use them, keep them in good working order and keep for future use. This exercise in responsibility is in-line with our school-wide expectations and district mission. Proceeds from the sales will be used for PBIS student rewards and/or field trip fund.
