IV. Superintendent Informational Report
|
|
| Presenter: |
Greg Eding
|
|
|
Description:
I am pleased to report that we have had a very smooth and successful start to the school year. Our Professional Learning Communities (PLC) system of collaboration has been a focus of our administration and this work is slowly paying off as we continue to work on the curriculum we teach, the assessments we use, and the interventions we use to keep our students learning at high levels. I am excited to see how this unfolds!
We continue to work on a potential capital bond project. Three community forums provided us some great feedback on what our community sees as needs versus wants. Our administrative team developed three lists: Priority Needs, Energy Efficiency and Modernization Improvements, and Educational Program Enhancements. We have hired Perspectives Consulting to conduct a survey of all residents within our district, with the goal to find what our community will support. This survey went live today and will be available for two weeks. We sent out communications through our school email and text notification system, school newsletters, social media, and through a postcard mailed to Lakeshore residents. Once the survey is completed, Perspectives Consulting will provide us with a full report that we will publish to the community. I am excited to report that our School Resource Officer, Mike Dorr, is quickly making his presence known in all of our buildings. Officer Dorr’s existence within our buildings has definitely been noted, and it will take a little time for our families to get used to that level of law enforcement being seen around the district. Officer Dorr is working on several projects, including updating all Lincoln Township vehicles with important school information in the event it should ever be needed. He is also working with building administrators to review and provide feedback on safety measures within each building. Overall it has been a great start to the school year! |
