LC Alert
The LC Alert system is the most direct and effective way for Lewis and Clark to communicate with students, faculty and staff members via home, office or cell phone, email or text message in case an emergency situation should arise. The system requires users to log in and input their preferred contact information, so please update your registration today in LC Alert.
LC Alert is also used to announce school closings during inclement weather.
