Rites of Passage:
Parents/Guardians who would like to work with the subcommittees in this area are urged to email Dr. Jennifer Gaudioso, Elementary Curriculum Director (gaudioj@lmsd.org), or Dr. Alexis McGloin, Assistant Superintendent (mcgloia@lmsd.org), as we are looking for additional parent/guardian voices in this work.
In addition to all of this work, the Administration has polled all District staff to learn their preferences for next year – whether they want to stay at current schools/grade levels or change schools or grades. And we are looking at how current buildings, especially BCMS and WVMS, can be used in new ways to support these initiatives.
As you can see, we have a lot going on in planning for an exciting 2022-2023 school year. We urge you to become involved in the process and review the presentations from Board and Committee meetings, which are available in the BoardDocs section of the District website. And you are always invited to share your thoughts with the Board during public comment or by emailing communitycomments@lmsd.org.
