View Flyer ➞LMHS hires in professionals from Performance Therapies to manage our strength program. We work to offer multiple opportunities for kids in the summer, and before and after school opportunities during the school year. When students are “out-of-season” we want them to lift 3 times a week. When students are “in-season” their teams will have 2 times a week for them to lift. The Performance Therapies group manages all of these weight programs and daily sessions for us. We are asking that each student pay $65 for yearlong strength training sessions at the high school. After using this company for 1 year we have seen great athletic growth in kids who have committed to this program! The fee we charge to students is our estimate of the cost we will incur for managing the strength program. Any additional funds remain with the strength training program for maintaining/upgrading equipment. Your fee covers all summer strength opportunities and, during the 2018-2019 school year, this payment will cover out-of-season strength sessions (before and after school), as well as in-season strength sessions with your team.
