SAAC
The LHS Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), modeled after the National College Athletics Association (NCAA) SAAC is a student-athlete leadership group that serves to gain insight into the student-athlete experience. This committee allows athletes to share their thoughts and experiences to help promote and implement programs that encourage LHS core values and athlete well-being. Additionally, it will offer an opportunity for athletes to grow, learn, and listen to different guest speakers and coaches.
All athletes and coaches are welcome to attend meetings! Meetings are on the 1st Friday of every month during WIN.
