Lincoln Public Schools: In One Word
Continuing with our one word that describes Lincoln Public Schools — in January our community said that LPS is… Opportunity.
It’s 2019, a new year, which encourages all of us to consider the concept of beginnings. Continuing with our series in using one word that describes Lincoln Public Schools – in January our community said that LPS is…Opportunity.
As students kick off the second semester, opportunity fills our schools and classrooms. Seniors have a few short months before crossing the stage into college, career and civic readiness. Kindergartners are impressing their friends and families with the growth they’ve made in the first 100 days of school. Students continue to illustrate their skills in the academics, athletics and the arts through a wide variety of city, district, state and national competitions and performances.
At LPS we focus on the individual student, each child receiving the opportunity to discover and explore their unique passions and talents. Our staff members support students as they take those instances when they may fall short to learn – and they take the moments of success to celebrate. Every day has the potential for our students to begin again: to move forward, create something new and take an opportunity to grow.
In January, our stories will reflect why LPS is… Opportunity.
This past summer we posed a question to our community, our families, our staff and our students – describe Lincoln Public Schools in one, single word. Each month we will reveal a new word that describes LPS.
