Superintendent's Website Message

Dear LT Community,
I want to welcome all of you to the 2009-2010 school year. As the parent of two daughters, the start of school fills our house with excitement and anticipation for new things: new crayons, markers, notebooks, backpacks, and the thought of new friends and teachers. For high school students, the start of school may encompass graphing calculators and required reading lists, but regardless of age, each new school year is wrought with excitement and even anxiety.  In my first year as your superintendent, I look forward to a new beginning while ushering in another year dedicated to the LT tradition of pride and excellence.

As we prepare for the opening of school, I am humbled by the opportunity to serve as your superintendent. I continue to be impressed by the level of parent and community involvement and support for LT. As superintendent, I will focus on student achievement, communication, and fiscal responsibility.
In addition to extending a welcome to our returning students and parents, please help me welcome more than 900 freshmen and their parents to the 2009-10 school year. It is our collective responsibility to help ensure their first year is successful and encompasses our district tenets of aesthetic and moral development while adhering to our First Class Principles. In addition to our new Lions, we will also launch several new programs and initiatives, the most significant of which is our transition to Professional Learning Communities, or PLC’s. Using a PLC model will build a foundation for our faculty and staff to meet and focus on curriculum development intended to improve student learning and increase academic achievement.

LT appreciates your support and I look forward to working with all of you in keeping the focus on our most cherished resource-our students. They deserve the very best!

Sincerely,

Timothy B. Kilrea
Superintendent
