Why Choose LISD?
What I love most about working in LISD is the commitment to nurturing the whole child, where academic growth is balanced with personal development. Being chosen as Teacher of the Year is an incredible honor and reminds me of the privilege I have to shape lives in collaboration with dedicated colleagues who share my passion for making a difference. Every day, I work to create an environment where students feel seen, valued, and empowered to make a lasting impact on the world around them.-Darlene Johnson, secondary Teacher of the Year
