Kindergarten loading . . .
Summer Bridge for our incoming Kindergarten students across the district kicked off today with tons of excitement, smiling faces, and big energy. Kids got their first chance to check out their new school, meet some teachers, and most of all ... make some new friends!
It was just a half day on campus, but it left some very full hearts for parents and school staff as they watched these little students take their first steps towards amazing things. Welcome to the family, Class of 2038! We can't wait to see you grow, learn, and thrive.

Summer Bridge programs kick off across the district tomorrow! We are thrilled to get our students that are transitioning onto new campuses in the building to get acclimated, meet teachers and staff, and start making new friends to get off the new year on the right foot. Students in Kindergarten, sixth grade, and ninth grade have the opportunity to participate in Summer Bridge and get a few days to "warm up" in a low stress environment before the school year kicks off in full on August 13th.

Going the Extra Mile—Even in Summer
We are fortunate to have so many dedicated educators in Lee County Schools. This week, more than 400 teachers gave up part of their summer to come together for three days of professional learning at the Accelerate Learning Conference 2025.
From classroom management and cooperative learning strategies to supporting multilingual learners and using technology to boost engagement—these educators leaned into the opportunity to grow. The time and energy they’ve invested will have a lasting impact on student achievement in the year ahead.
Thank you, LCS teachers and staff, for your passion, commitment, and drive to keep getting better. Here’s to a great year ahead!

Learning with friends helps us level up.
Whether it’s our students in the classroom or staff in professional development, learning alongside friends makes all the difference. It boosts engagement, deepens understanding, and builds stronger connections to the content—and to each other.
Here in Lee County, professional development happens across the district, but always within a close-knit community. Events like the Accelerate Learning Conference give our staff a chance to grow together—sharing ideas, building lasting relationships, and strengthening our collective ability to provide students with the best education possible.
It may only be Day 2 of ALC 2025, but from the smiles, engaged faces, and spirited conversations, one thing is clear: our teachers are leveling up for the year ahead.

She is a hard one to surprise, but Dr. Dossenbach was able to do it today! We surprised our longtime Assistant to the Superintendent, Susan Britt, for her birthday during the afternoon session of the Administrators' Workshop at the Accelerate Learning Conference.

Building Champions On & Off the Court
Friday night lights shine bright in our local public schools. Dreams take shape and lifelong lessons are learned through the challenges of teamwork and competition. Whether our students are competing on the football field, leading the crowd as cheerleaders, grinding through wrestling or track practice, or pushing through early morning workouts, they are learning what it means to be part of something bigger than themselves.
Wearing their school’s uniform means more than just playing a game—it means representing their community and honoring the legacy of student-athletes who came before them. They feel the pride of tradition, the weight of hard work, and the excitement of facing a crosstown rival you might see every day around town.
Athletics are deeply woven into the fabric of our public schools and our community. The students who learned leadership, sacrifice, and resilience as Yellow Jackets or Cavaliers are now our business owners, educators, and civic leaders.
That’s why supporting our public schools matters—because when our students thrive, we all do.

Hands-On Learning & Exploration
Our local public schools offer students exciting, hands-on opportunities to explore future careers in healthcare, construction, engineering, business, and so much more. Many of these Career & Technical Education (CTE) pathways begin as early as middle school and continue to shape a high-quality, real-world high school education.
To spark curiosity and learning in the early years, elementary students in Lee County Schools also get a chance to sample CTE experiences throughout the year. One of the most immersive ways they can do this is during our summer CTE Camps.
These low-cost, high-engagement camps let students roll up their sleeves and try something brand new—whether it’s masonry, first aid, or culinary arts. It’s learning by doing, and for many students, it’s the spark that ignites a future passion.
Check out the fun and learning happening this week at our CTE Camps—and start thinking about joining us next summer!

Creative & Caring Teachers Make a Difference
Our local public schools are filled with some of the most dedicated, skilled, and creative educators—and it shows the moment you step into their classrooms. Just this past spring, first-grade teachers at Tramway Elementary brought learning to life with a special event called the “Taste of Reading” Café Day.
After reading five fiction books covering a variety of topics, students received a “menu” where they rated each book, shared their favorite parts, and reflected on the main ideas. Then, in small groups, they discussed their thoughts and enjoyed tasty treats tied to the books they’d read.
It may seem like a small classroom activity, but it’s a perfect example of how our licensed professional educators go above and beyond. They pour their time, talents, and heart into reaching students where they are—making learning both meaningful and fun every single day. This type of dedication is one of the many reasons our students thrive.
If having licensed, skilled, and caring educators guide your child’s learning matters to your family, we invite you to enroll in our Lee County public schools today. Enroll now: https://www.lee.k12.nc.us/o/lcs/page/enrollment
