LakeVille Community Schools Strategic Planning Survey
LakeVille Community Schools is developing a strategic plan to guide the direction of the district for the next several years.
A strategic plan is a roadmap for the future. It defines what we want to achieve as a school district, identifies our priorities, and guides how we make decisions about programs, resources, and support for students. A strong strategic plan reflects the values and hopes of students, staff, and the larger community.
Your input is vital, and we invite feedback from all of our stakeholders. The survey takes approximately 15 minutes. Your responses are anonymous and confidential. Please complete the survey by following the link below.

Wait for the signal: Wait for the bus to stop completely and the driver to signal before approaching or crossing.
Cross safely: Always walk 10 to 12 feet in front of the bus so the driver can see you, and make eye contact first.

The Board of Education gave Jayce Roberts a Falcon Pride Builder Award at Tuesday night's meeting for his great sportsmanship, which a parent from the opposing team recognized on Facebook. Congratulations Jayce!
Chrystal Raible is our Falcon Award Winner for October! Here is the nomination written on her behalf:
I’d love to nominate Chrystal Raible for the Falcon Award! She’s really gone the extra mile this year, jumping in to do two jobs whenever her supervisor is out sick. She’s a go-to person for just about anything you need to know, and her positive attitude is honestly contagious. No matter how busy things get, she’s always smiling and ready to help, never shying away from taking on more than her role requires.
On top of that, she’s super organized and always gets things done on time, even under pressure. Her attention to detail means our payroll and accounts payable are always spot-on, and she’s the first to offer a hand if anyone needs help. Her work ethic and upbeat personality make her a real role model for the whole office.
We’re really lucky to have her, and I can’t think of anyone who deserves this award more!

Why Choose School Sports?
Because school sports programs are different. While club, collegiate, and professional sports are focused on developing the best athletes, education-based athletics are focused on developing the whole person through invaluable life lessons.
Looking for a way to get involved at your school? For a sporting event to attend? For a cause to support? Choose School Sports!
Students: School sports programs help you develop character, build confidence, and gain friends and mentors for life. Talk to your school’s athletic administrator about participating!
Parents, educators and community members: School sports programs are where everyone can join. Everyone is welcome. And everyone belongs. Encourage the students in your life to get involved!
Sports fans: Attending your local schools’ athletic events supports student-athletes and their schools, your community and the mission of school sports. Thank you for your partnership!
