December 2024

The 2024 Season of Caring

It hardly seems possible that we have reached the halfway point of our academic year. While most people associate this time of the year with the holidays and winter break, December has become a special time for Lancaster City Schools because of the tremendous amount of giving that takes place.

We refer to the final weeks of the calendar year as the Season of Caring and this year, once again, we are blown away by the acts of kindness carried out by our students, their families, and our amazing staff. Did you know by the end of December we will have completed 48 acts of giving and provided holiday gifts to 29 local families? This kindness was provided by hundreds of people affiliated with our school district. We are dedicating this issue of the newsletter to them! Please take a moment to hear more from Superintendent Hale.

REMINDER: There will be no school from December 23 through January 3. Classes will resume on Monday, January 6, 2025. Have a wonderful break!

What is Portrait of a Graduate?

Lancaster City Schools has been the place to be for learning, caring, and succeeding for the past several years. As part of our mission and vision for the district, we developed our Portrait of a Graduate. This program was integrated into our district to build bridges to life beyond school. Our students will be prepared to succeed in life after high school while showing a high level of social-emotional skills, and effective and professional communication. With the strong community that unites Lancaster City Schools, we can work together to better prepare our students for success beyond school.
