The district continues to study enrollment and possible site for a second high school, with about 70 students in the Lawrence Alternative High School at Holcomb Park aiding individualized attention.

End of the Hackberry Butterfly Season in 1993
Entomologist Orley Taylor of Kansas University notes the hackberry butterfly season in Lawrence is near its end with 15 to 25 percent still flying. He calls 1993 one of the best years on record, likely due to favorable egg-laying conditions and rainfall reducing parasites. Clinton Lake swarms have defoliated some hackberry trees, though the trees can leaf again. A smaller second or third generation may appear in early September.
