The CLASS Project Communication Spring 2011 Presentation -
Getting the message out
Take a look at our CLASS project presentation by clicking on the image to the left. The presentation allows us to put our work into layman's terms as we spread the word about our work to all of the stakeholder groups. Our teachers, other staff, the school Board, the families and the rest of the community will all be involved in the conversation. After viewing the presentation please feel free to contact us via the form below for input, questions or clarifying facts. (Watch the video by itself!)
In Lebanon its all about T.H.E. Work!
Training, Hiring and Evaluation are the cornerstones of excellence and we focus all of our efforts to hone these three areas to enhance teacher effectiveness and support students in Lebanon. The four class components mesh perfectly within this paradigm. Please click on the tabs above to see the relationship between CLASS and the T.H.E. Work.
Check out the LCSD 2020 Community Visioning Work!
Our work with CLASS aligns with the vision set forth by the community. Click on the icon to the left to see the website and download a copy of the report.
In January 2010, Lebanon Community Schools launched a community visioning process to determine a clear 10-year vision for the district. The goal of Superintendent Rob Hess and the Lebanon School Board was to establish the community’s collective vision of quality education for its students.
The process sought to identify the community’s values and keep a laser focus on continuously
improving student achievement and success aligned with those values. Superintendent Hess and the school board believe this community conversation is key in guiding the district’s future and creating the best possible outcomes. Participants in the engagement sessions were asked:
1. What knowledge and skills are essential to the success of our students in the 21st century
workplace?
2. What learning experiences and opportunities should we provide for our students?
3. What do we want our district, schools and community to look like 10 years from now?
Instead of operating like traditional meetings, these visioning sessions were facilitated to engage all participants and efficiently gather input. The goal was to gather common themes and key findings that would be used to guide the future of Lebanon Community Schools.
During winter and spring 2010, community members were provided with several opportunities to
express their views and values in large and small forums. Stakeholders were invited to attend several discussions open to the community. District leaders also met with a wide variety of civic, business, political and community organizations. Discussions were facilitated at district schools to gather input from staff, parent and student groups, and an online survey was made available to all interested individuals.
On March 16, 2010, the district hosted a culminating event at Lebanon High School. Attendees participated in activities, including electronic voting, to help the district further explore and prioritize the initial findings and themes that had emerged during the course of the visioning process.
The final step in the visioning process was the formation of a Synthesizing Committee. Superintendent Hess and the school board invited a representative group of community members, parents, teachers, building principals, local business leaders and board members to explore in depth the themes that emerged from the visioning process and to generate recommendations for the district’s future. These recommendations are used as the framework that guides the future decisions and programs of Lebanon Community Schools.
