![]() ![]() We are also opening Little Raven Elementary School this year as the newly combined home of East Elementary and Ralph Moody Elementary. This August, we will open our EPIC Campus (Explorative Pathways for Innovative Careers) to over 900 students from our high schools. This community’s ongoing support for our schools through passage of the $298 million bond in 2018 and the $12 million mill levy override in 2020 has made possible much of the progress you see happening today. Additionally, we will continue to monitor student outcomes, look for opportunities for improvement, and make adjustments to meet the needs of all learners. LPS will continue to provide time for our teachers to do this important work. It is a process that brings out the best in our students and our instructional staff. In this process, our teachers consider the needs of every learner as they sharpen their skills, share best practices, and evaluate the impact of their instruction. PLCs are organized around four essential questions for student learning. Our commitment to Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) continues to be an effective method for reaching our district achievement goal. Being prepared for life after graduation requires aligned practices that begin with our youngest learners and continue all the way through high school graduation. This is truly a systemwide goal that begins well before our students reach high school. Our efforts have and will continue to be centered on our district goal of ensuring that 100 percent of LPS students will graduate prepared for meaningful post-secondary opportunities. In June, the Board of Education and district leadership participated in a retreat to clarify and prioritize our work for the upcoming year. Your pride in LPS has shined through in each of those interactions.īecause of this smooth transition, I have already hit the ground running. Thank you to the numerous people who have reached out to us to offer support. My family and I are getting settled into our new home and we have enjoyed many of the great things our new community has to offer. The LPS Board of Education and district leaders have helped make my transition a smooth one I have been in regular contact with district staff, learning about the traditions and priorities of this community, and building relationships since last March. Even though I’ve been officially serving as your LPS superintendent for just a few weeks, I already feel right at home, and I am eager to meet you and your students as we prepare to kick off the 2023–2024 school year. ![]()
