Pumpkin decorating day at Porter was a hit! 🎃
A big thank-you to our friends from Civitan for providing pumpkins and supplies, and to the Tecumseh High School leadership students who jumped in to help our students bring their pumpkin vision to life.

Great things happening at Prairie Elementary! LISD itinerants Maddie Bielskis, school psychologist, Kia Rainey, speech and language pathologist, Christy Vigo, occupational therapist, and Chloe Pike, school social worker partnered to teach one of the first grade classrooms how to use LAMP to communicate with their friends. LAMP is an augmentative and alternative communication app that assists students struggling with language output better communicate. We know when teams work together outcomes are better. One of the many highlights of the day was when a student used the device to tell their teacher they loved her. This is an example of what you can accomplish as a team. Amazing job!

Over the next couple of weeks, LISD staff are participating in CPI (Crisis Prevention Institute) training. This training focuses on preventing and safely responding to crisis situations with respect, care, and a trauma-informed approach.

The goal is simple: to keep students, staff, and our entire school community safe while supporting every learner with dignity. These moments of practice help ensure that, if challenges arise, our team is prepared with calm, consistent strategies.

This year’s Opening Day kicked off with incredible energy, and one unforgettable highlight involved a bold fashion statement… pink pants!

Alena York, Executive Director of Special Education, started it all as the original pink pants icon. The pants quickly became more than just a wardrobe choice. They symbolized risk taking, trusting your team, tackling challenges head on, having fun, and loving what you do.

For Boss’s Day, Superintendent Mark Haag received a pair of his own, and let’s just say… he wore them like a champ! 👏 We loved seeing him embrace the spirit of the moment with a great sense of humor.

Here’s to leading with heart, courage, and maybe a little bit of pink flair.

Students at Trenton Hills Learning Center got an up-close look at a firetruck and ambulance thanks to the Adrian Fire Department. They learned all about fire safety, got to meet firefighters in full gear (so they know what a real hero looks and sounds like in an emergency), and even had the chance to touch a firehose and explore the equipment.

These hands-on experiences help our students feel confident and safe, plus make great memories!

📸 Check out some photos from the visit
