Today, it was Elementary's turn to demonstrate outstanding attendance.
With only two students absent, LC Elementary showed up strong. (I think everyone wanted to show off their Halloween costumes) :)
Great job, LC Elementary.

Our Book Club Keeps Spreading the Love of Reading
One of the things I love most about Leverett’s Chapel is watching our students lead and inspire others. This week, members of our Girls’ Book Club continued to share the love of books and reading by visiting our Pre-K through 2nd-grade classes. They read Pick a Pumpkin to our younger students and awarded a copy of the book to one student in each class. Moments like these remind me that leadership starts early and that reading truly connects our entire school family.
I want to thank Ms. Amaya for her continued guidance and leadership of this club. She continues to provide meaningful opportunities for our students to grow as readers, role models, and leaders. Her passion for literacy and student engagement is what makes programs like this so successful.
We are proud of our Book Club and their work to make reading a part of everyday life here at LC.

The Leverett’s Chapel Chess Club is still going strong and meets every Thursday morning. Eleven students from grades 6, 7, and 8 were in attendance today. While most people are playing checkers, our LC students are playing chess and always thinking one move ahead.
I am proud of these students for challenging their minds and showing what it means to be thoughtful and focused learners.

Attendance: It just means more at LC!
Today, the High School had perfect attendance!! Junior High followed close behind with a strong 98 percent, with only one student absent.
Way to show up!
At LC, the most important ability in the work we are doing is availability. Success starts with being present and putting in the work every day.

Leverett’s Chapel ISD will begin accepting student transfer applications for the Spring Semester on November 4.
Leverett’s Chapel means a great deal to me both personally and professionally. It is more than a school district. It is a family. It is a place where teachers know every child, where students are encouraged to dream big, and where we take pride in doing things the right way. Every day, we are working to make Leverett’s Chapel a better place for our students and our community.
If you are looking for a small district that offers personal attention, strong academics, and a caring environment, we would love the opportunity to visit with you. I would be honored to talk with you about your child’s future and how your family can become a part of the Leverett’s Chapel Lion Family in 2026.

It has been a few weeks since our last attendance update, but LC Elementary continues to show up strong.
Today, the campus hit 98 percent attendance with only two students absent. That is a great way to keep the momentum going, even with the change in seasons.
Thank you to our students, families, and staff for staying consistent. You are laying the foundation early.

Schools purchase buses every day. Most treat it like routine business. Just another transaction.
That is not how I see it.
Here at Leverett’s Chapel ISD, this is a moment worth celebrating. This is about safety for our students. This is about pride in our district. This is about continuing to move forward together.
I am proud to share that we have added a brand new school bus to our fleet. This is not just a vehicle. It is an investment in our students. It means safer, more reliable transportation. It means a comfortable ride for the young people we serve. It means doing right by our kids.
Thank you to our school board for supporting this purchase. Thank you to everyone involved in the process!!
Mr. Stan, enjoy your new route bus. I know you will take care of it like you take care of our students.
We are blessed here at LCISD. This is another step in the right direction.
