Students at May Whitney signing the “Wall of Honor” after earning their positive office referrals - congratulations to all who demonstrated respect, responsibility and safety to earn their recognitions! @moreanoLZ95 @GalltKelley
Authentic learning in action! We completed the third phase of our team-based challenge: LZHS engineers designed, collaborated with @SnapCircuits, and manufactured fidgets inspired by 4th and 5th graders. This is the power of a #unitdistrict—fostering career readiness from K-12!
Art fosters creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving—essential skills for college, career, and life. When students create, they innovate! Thank you to our Art Team for creating and organizing the D95 Art Festival!
