Dear Lisbon Central School District Families,

Welcome to the 2023-24 school year at Lisbon Central School! I trust this message finds you refreshed and eager to embark on a new and exciting educational journey. I extend a warm and heartfelt welcome to our returning students and those joining the Lisbon family for the very first time.

At Lisbon Central School, we firmly believe that education is a transformative odyssey, molding the minds and characters of our young learners. Our commitment is to cultivate a nurturing and inspirational atmosphere where each student can flourish academically, socially, and emotionally. As the 7-12 principal, it is my dedicated mission to ensure your child receives a stellar education while nurturing their personal growth.

Our devoted team of educators and staff have been hard at work throughout the summer, preparing diligently for the year ahead. They have crafted innovative lesson plans, enriched the curriculum, and designed engaging activities to make learning an enriching and dynamic experience. We are thrilled to introduce new programs and initiatives that will provide our students with a well-rounded education, equipping them with the skills and knowledge essential for success in an ever-evolving world.

In this collaborative educational journey, I encourage parents to maintain open lines of communication with your child's teachers and the school administration. Your involvement and support are integral to your child's success. Your feedback, suggestions, and partnership are invaluable as we strive to deliver the best possible education for your child.

Throughout the school year, we will organize various events and parent-teacher conferences to facilitate meaningful interactions between school and home. These opportunities will enable us to celebrate achievements, address concerns, and work together in the best interest of our students.

To our students, I encourage you to approach this year with enthusiasm and a growth mindset. Embrace the challenges, seek new opportunities, and make the most of the resources and support at your disposal. Remember, every setback is an opportunity to learn and grow, and our dedicated teachers and staff are here to guide and empower you on your educational journey.

Lisbon Central School District is dedicated to promoting overall student wellness, which includes finding balance in our lives. Establishing positive habits at school to support our wellness goals is crucial. To this end, personal electronic devices will not be allowed during the school day, except for students with medical requirements. If your child requires a personal electronic device for medical reasons, please submit a medical note from a healthcare professional to the school nurse.

In closing, I am thrilled and filled with anticipation for the year ahead. Together, as a united and collaborative community, we can create a positive and inspirational learning environment where every student can thrive. I eagerly look forward to partnering with you in your child's education and celebrating their achievements.

Once again, welcome back! Let's make this academic year a memorable one, filled with achievements, growth, and joy.

Wishing you a fantastic start to the new school year!

Sincerely,

George Scoville-Upham
