2025-2026 Parents of the Year
At Tuesday night’s Board Meeting, we were proud to recognize the Parent of the Year from each of our schools.
A common theme among the principals was the incredible dedication these parents show to their school communities. From supporting PTO efforts to helping teachers and encouraging students, these individuals are always willing to step in and lend a hand both during and after school hours. Their presence, support, and servant hearts make a lasting difference in our buildings each day.
Thank you to these outstanding parents for the many ways you help strengthen our schools and support our students and staff!
LUES 6th Grade Student Council had a great time visiting Beau Ridge Retirement Home for a fun afternoon of glow-in-the-dark bingo with residents!
Introducing your Class of 2026 Valedictorian and Salutatorian
LCSD has been notified of a recent data breach involving Instructure, the company that operates Canvas. This was not a breach of our district’s internal systems, but of the Canvas platform, which impacted schools worldwide.
The information involved is limited to basic directory data (such as names and school email addresses). At this time, there is no indication that sensitive information was affected.
We encourage everyone to be cautious of unexpected emails, as phishing attempts may increase. LCSD will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as needed.
Thank you to The Oxford Eagle for highlighting the great work happening in our district and community.
We’re grateful for the opportunity to share the stories of our students and programs, and the impact they continue to make.
