Leadership and Learning are indispensable to each other

– John F. Kennedy

November in LPS

November has been a month filled with learning, connection, and incredible student experiences across Lebanon Public Schools. We kicked off the month with strong family engagement during Parent-Teacher Conferences, giving families and staff valuable time to celebrate student progress and set goals for the months ahead. These conversations continue to strengthen the partnership between home and school—one of the most important components of our students’ success.


This month also showcased the depth and breadth of hands-on learning opportunities available to our students. Our fourth graders continued their exploration through Boats for Kids, engaging with six core submarine-construction trades in partnership with Electric Boat. At the middle and high school levels, students participated in a major Manufacturing Career Field Trip, meeting industry leaders and seeing firsthand the pathways available right here in Connecticut. Our environmental science learners took part in the Project O experience, while another group of students traveled to the United Nations—an unforgettable opportunity to explore global issues and develop leadership, awareness, and advocacy skills aligned to our Portrait of a Graduate.


Beyond the classroom, November brought tremendous pride to our athletic programs. The Lyman Memorial girls’ cross country team captured the Class S State Championship for the second consecutive year, an extraordinary accomplishment that reflects their dedication, discipline, and team unity. Individually, Hazel DeLucia and Sylvie Hiltz earned All-State and Academic All-State honors for their exceptional performances both on the course and in the classroom. Hazel continued to elevate her outstanding career by finishing 11th at the New England Championships, securing All-New England honors. We also celebrate middle schooler Cyril Green, who won the NEMSAC championship race, adding another exciting highlight to a strong fall season. Across the district, fall athletic teams wrapped up competitive postseason runs, representing Lebanon with pride, sportsmanship, and determination.


We were also proud to welcome several sending towns and our own middle school students and families to the Open House at Lyman Memorial High School, strengthening regional partnerships and showcasing the powerful learning community we continue to grow in Lebanon. Additionally, our Lebanon FFA students once again distinguished themselves on the national stage at the National FFA Convention, demonstrating the strength of our agricultural science and leadership programs.


As we head into the Thanksgiving season, I want to express my sincere gratitude to our students, staff, families, and community partners. November has reminded us—through every classroom experience, competition, field trip, and family conversation—just how special this district is. Thank you for your unwavering support of Lebanon Public Schools and for helping us Grow Learners, Cultivate Leaders, and Create Legacies every single day.

Celebrating Growth and Continuing Our Commitment to Excellence

Lebanon Public Schools continues to make strong, measurable progress toward our district vision of Growing Learners, Cultivating Leaders, and Creating Legacies. The recently released Connecticut State Department of Education 2024–25 Accountability Index reflects the collective dedication of our students, staff, and families. With an overall district score of 76.8, Lebanon is demonstrating consistent growth across all academic indicators and a steadfast commitment to ensuring every student thrives.


Our students are growing faster than their peers statewide in both reading and mathematics. Lebanon earned a 64.5% growth rate in ELA and 68.0% in Math, both exceeding the state averages. These gains reflect the strength of Tier 1 instruction, targeted intervention, and the exceptional collaboration of our teachers through data teams and professional learning communities.


At the school level, each building is contributing to this upward trajectory:

  • Lebanon Elementary School continues to build strong early literacy and numeracy foundations, with a Performance Index of 73.5 in ELA and 69.3 in Math.

  • Lebanon Middle School met the state target in ELA and posted one of the district’s strongest math growth rates at 69.4%.

  • Lyman Memorial High School continues to excel in science, achieving an 83.7 index score—well above the state target—and increasing postsecondary readiness through expanding career pathways and partnerships with local industry and higher education.


Beyond academics, our students are showing renewed engagement. Chronic absenteeism has declined to 12.4%, a significant improvement from previous years, and our graduation rates remain strong at 83.1% overall and 88.9% for high-needs students. These outcomes highlight the success of our shared efforts to strengthen relationships, promote wellness, and provide individualized support for every learner.


While we celebrate this success, we also recognize the areas where we must continue to improve. Lebanon remains focused on narrowing performance gaps between high-needs and non-high-needs students, deepening literacy and math interventions, and expanding opportunities for career and college readiness. Our educators are committed to refining instructional practice, enhancing attendance outreach, and strengthening student voice and choice to ensure every learner’s potential is realized.


Together, we are proving that when a community unites around a shared purpose, great things happen. The progress reflected in this report belongs to all of us—our students, staff, families, and community partners—who embody the spirit of Lebanon’s mission every day.

We will continue to Grow Learners, Cultivate Leaders, and Create Legacies—one student at a time.

Update from Rita Quiles-Glover, Director of Curriculum and Instruction

Learning Walks: Supporting Teaching and Learning PreK–12


This year, Lebanon Public Schools will be conducting learning walks in grades PreK through Grade 12. These short, non-evaluative classroom visits help us better understand the daily learning experiences of our students. Each school will participate in at least four learning walks throughout the year, supported by a consultant who specializes in instructional improvement, along with Central Office staff and building administrators.


Learning walks allow us to:

  • Identify and celebrate strong instructional practices happening across classrooms.

  • Ensure consistency and high-quality teaching throughout the district.

  • Provide teachers with meaningful support and professional learning.

  • Strengthen alignment across grade levels so students experience a smooth, connected learning progression from year to year.

By deepening our understanding of what students experience each day, we can make more informed decisions about curriculum, instruction, and supports. Ultimately, this work helps us create richer, more engaging, and more effective learning environments that directly benefit your child. We look forward to continuing this important PreK–12 work and always appreciate your partnership in supporting teaching and learning across Lebanon Public Schools.

Student Athlete Celebrations

Write up provided by LMS Cross Country Coach Deugans


Cyril Green (6th grade) had a great second season in middle school cross country. He started the season running the home course in a time of 15 minutes and 52 seconds on September 10th. Three weeks later, on October 1st, he had cut 1 minute and 41 seconds off his time completing the course in 14 minutes and 11 seconds. A week later, October 9th, he took another 9 seconds off his time and finished with a time of 14 minutes and 2 seconds; taking first place, winning the meet by a fraction of a second. And on October 21st, Cyril won NEMSAC with a time of 14 minutes and 1 second.


Cyril was and is an example of determination and effort. As a team we worked on effort and teamwork all season. All season long Cyril ran hard with a smile on his face. When asked to jog, he would run; when asked to run he would sprint; and when asked to sprint, he would push himself harder. In the week leading up to NEMSAC, Cyril was determined not to let someone from another school take first place and possibly have the course record. He worked on a plan on how best to fulfill his wish. Together, with his teammates, we helped him work on the plan and practice it to see it come to fruition.


After completing his goal at NEMSAC, Cyril set his sights on States. He came into practice with a specific goal; to finish in the top 10. We worked on a plan and put it into action. While he did not make his goal this year of making it into the top 10, he did finish in the top 50. He can now see how much it will take to be in the top 10 next year. And I am certain that he will continue to put forth the effort to reach his goal. Again, great season and a great example of what it means to persevere and be a team player.


Write ups provided by Chantal Fauteux-Fields,

Head Cross-Country Coach at Lyman Memorial High School


Hazel DeLucia

This fall Hazel earned all-state honors for her 4th consecutive year, an incredible accomplishment that reflects her consistency, dedication and love for the sport. At the class 'S' state meet Hazel finished 2nd overall for the second year in a row helping the girls earn their second consecutive class 's' title. Hazel also represented our school at the New England meet in Vermont where she earned All-New England honors for the second time with an impressive 11th place finish against the best runners from across the region. Throughout her career at Lyman Hazel has also been a three time ECC champion. Hazel's commitment in the classroom also earned her Academic All-State Honors. Hazel's focus, determination, and competitiveness have set the standard for excellence in our program. Her commitment to training and her drive to perform at her best has been an inspiration to her teammates. We are incredibly proud to celebrate Hazel's success and the mark she has left on Lyman Memorial cross-county.


Sylvie Hiltz

4 long years of work and dedication paid off at the class 'S' state meet when Sylvie finished 11th to earn All-state honors for the first time. Sylvie's placing played a key role in helping Lyman capture its second state title in 2 years. She followed up that performance the following week with a Wickham Park PR at the State Open meet and helped the team to a strong 13th place finish among the top programs in Connecticut. Sylvies success also stretches into the classroom where she earned Academic All-State Honors. Sylvie is deeply admired by her teammates for her positivity, sportsmanship and steady leadership. She shows up every day ready to work hard and give her best effort, no matter the workout or conditions. Sylvie is incredibly dedicated and committed not only to her own improvement but also to the success of her teammates and the program as a whole. This season we are especially proud of the tremendous growth in her confidence and mental toughness which helped her reach a new level as both an athlete and competitor. Sylvie's focus, resilience, and team first attitude have made her an essential part in Lyman Memorial's success.



Girls XC Team

This talented and determined group captured the class 'S' state title for the second year in a row building on last year's win and a runner-up finish in 2023. The thrilling race came down to a battle for every point, and the girls showed incredible tenacity and grit, edging out Shepaug Valley by 4 points to claim the win. Together, they delivered a true team performance, placing the five scoring runners in the top 25. Lead by Senior Hazel DeLucia in 2nd, Senior Sylvie Hiltz 11th, Sophomore Nora Johnson 20th, Sophomore Elisabeth Person 21st, Junior Luci Gardella 25th, Junior Hannah Bower 67th and Sophomore Sabrina Shanks 79th. This group’s commitment,work ethic and belief in one another have been the foundation of their success. Every athlete contributed to the effort, whether on the course, summer training, in practice, or race day they were constantly pushing each other to be their best. Their teamwork, resilience, and competitive spirit exemplify what it means to be a Lyman Memorial Bulldog.

Project-O: Connecticut River Connections Program

A select group of Lebanon 6th–8th graders are taking part in the grant funded Connecticut River Connections, an exciting Project Oceanology program that brings students from rural and urban areas together to explore the amazing ecosystems of the Connecticut River. They will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on experiments in the classroom, on the shore, and even aboard the EnviroLab research vessel. Students will study local wildlife, test water quality, and learn what makes this river so special. Along the way, they’ll build teamwork skills and make new friends!

United Nations Club

On Thursday, October 23, our Model United Nations club participated in a field trip to New York City as part of the Connecticut World Affairs Council (CTWAC) United Nations Experience program. This opportunity gave students an inside look at international diplomacy in action as they prepare for the upcoming CTWAC MUN Conference in December.

During our visit, students met with a representative from Iceland's Permanent Mission to the United Nations, engaging in thoughtful discussions on global issues such as women’s rights, oceanic sustainability, and the regulation of weaponized AI. Students also had the chance to hear from a member of the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) to learn more about the organization’s mission and global initiatives. Throughout the day, students demonstrated curiosity, professionalism, and strong critical thinking skills by asking thought-provoking questions and participating in meaningful discussions.

This trip served as an excellent preparation for our December conference, where students will represent Sierra Leone across six different MUN committees. Although we were unable to secure a meeting with the Sierra Leone Mission, students used the experience to deepen their understanding of diplomatic protocol, international collaboration, and hear firsthand about the state of the UN today.

Overall, this trip inspired our students to think globally and engage thoughtfully with complex international issues.

ACM Workforce Experience

Students from Lyman Memorial High School attended the Aerospace Components Manufacturers (ACM) Aerospace Alley® Future Workforce Opportunities Fair—an annual event designed to inspire the next generation of innovators and skilled professionals in Connecticut’s world-class manufacturing sector.


This exciting fair brought together over 100 aerospace and defense manufacturers, educational institutions, and industry leaders, offering students the opportunity to explore cutting-edge technology, learn about high-demand career pathways, and connect directly with employers shaping the future of advanced manufacturing.


Through interactive exhibits, live demonstrations, and hands-on experiences, students gained valuable insight into career opportunities in fields such as welding, machining, engineering, and design—areas that directly align with Lebanon Public Schools’ growing Career and Technical Education (CTE) Pathways, including the district’s new Welding Pathway developed in partnership with Electric Boat, UConn, and local industry partners.

Portrait of an Educator

Portrait of an Educator
At Lebanon Public Schools, we know that developing graduates who are responsible citizens, effective communicators, critical thinkers, innovative problem solvers, lifelong learners, and engaged collaborators begins with exceptional educators. The Portrait of an Educator recognition celebrates staff members who model these very qualities in their daily practice—empowering students, inspiring colleagues, and advancing our mission of growing learners, cultivating leaders, and creating legacies. During the 25-26 school year please be on the lookout for write ups celebrating our teaching team.

Kelsey Konow

This month, Lebanon Public Schools is proud to honor LES School Nurse Kelsey Konow as our Portrait of an Educator—a recognition that shines a light on individuals whose daily actions exemplify our mission to Grow Learners, Cultivate Leaders, and Create Legacies. Kelsey’s work in the LES health office perfectly embodies this vision. Every scrape cleaned, symptom assessed, or conversation held with a curious young learner becomes a moment of growth. Whether she is explaining why she palpates lymph nodes or guiding a child through the steps of good hygiene, Kelsey transforms the health office into a place of learning. Her commitment to empowering students with knowledge about their own well-being nurtures confident, self-advocating leaders—students who take responsibility for medications, ask questions, and understand the importance of caring for their own health.


Kelsey’s impact extends far beyond medical care. She approaches each student with compassion, patience, and presence—especially in the vulnerable moments when children are scared, hurting, or unsure. One story from her first year as a school nurse has stayed with her: a quiet student delivered a handwritten note before winter break, thanking her for making them “feel like I mattered.” That simple but powerful message captures exactly what makes Kelsey exceptional. She never rushes a child back to class or minimizes their concerns; instead, she listens, reassures, and supports each student as though they were her own. In doing so, she models the type of relationship-centered leadership that anchors a positive school climate.


A dedicated learner herself, Kelsey continually seeks opportunities to grow her expertise and strengthen our district’s safety and wellness practices. This year, she completed training to become a Stop the Bleed instructor and will provide hands-on emergency training for LES staff using clinical simulation equipment. She stays current with emerging health information—such as new epinephrine delivery methods—and proactively shares resources with families through monthly health updates in the LES newsletter. Every effort is centered on equipping our staff, students, and families with the knowledge they need to thrive both in and beyond the classroom.


Perhaps what Kelsey is most proud of is the trust students place in her. Each time a child walks through the health office door—whether with a hangnail, a stomachache, or something more serious—they do so because they feel safe, seen, and cared for. Kelsey carries this responsibility with deep respect, knowing that she is caring for “someone’s whole world.” Her pride in serving a school she once attended, alongside educators who shaped her own childhood, makes her recognition even more meaningful. Kelsey gives 110% each day, and in return, she leaves a legacy of compassion, confidence, and wellness that will benefit our students for years to come.


Please join me in congratulating Kelsey Konow for representing the very best of Lebanon Public Schools and for living our mission with heart, expertise, and unwavering dedication.

Heart of the Harvest

The Heart of the Harvest recognition honors an individual whose extraordinary commitment, selfless volunteerism, and unwavering dedication have made a lasting impact on Lebanon Public Schools. Like the hands that tend and nurture a thriving harvest, this individual has given generously of their time, talents, and heart—helping to grow learners, cultivate leaders, and create legacies that will benefit generations to come.


Their efforts reflect the very essence of our district’s vision. Whether through steadfast support, behind-the-scenes contributions, or visible acts of service, the recipient of this award embodies the spirit of community and the belief that our schools flourish when we all come together in service of our students. We are proud to recognize their enduring influence and heartfelt commitment to our shared mission.

Tom Nanos

This month, we are proud to recognize Tom as our Heart of the Harvest honoree—a community member whose generosity, talent, and unwavering spirit of service have left a lasting imprint on Lebanon Public Schools. Tom’s connection to our district began as a parent, with both of his daughters starting their journeys at LES and graduating from Lyman Memorial High School (Katina in 2020 and Callie in 2022). What started as a parent capturing memories of his own children quickly grew into something much larger. As his daughters became involved in more competitive athletics, Tom recognized an opportunity to give other families something meaningful: photos that captured joy, effort, teamwork, and pride. He began photographing entire teams, sharing those images with families, the yearbook, and Lyman’s social media—all at no cost.


Over the years, Tom’s volunteer photography has contributed more than beautiful memories. He donated every dollar of profit from print sales—more than $2,500—to the Lyman Memorial High School Booster Club, directly supporting student-athletes across all programs. His generosity didn’t stop there. Whether capturing LMHS Drama Club productions or donating images for school publications, Tom has always approached his work with a spirit of gratitude and community. His motivation is simple yet powerful: he believes that thriving communities begin with strong schools, and that giving back is essential to helping them grow.


Tom’s service extends well beyond LPS. He lends his talents to three nonprofit organizations—the Hellenic Society Paideia, the Connecticut Eastern Railroad Museum, and the Lebanon Volunteer Fire Department—where photography remains his primary focus. But it’s the moments when parents stop to thank him, especially those whose children play sports his own daughters never did, that remind him his efforts matter. Those expressions of appreciation are what reinforce his belief that even small acts, given consistently, ripple outward in meaningful ways.


When asked what he hopes his legacy will be, Tom’s answer speaks to the heart of this recognition: he hopes that years from now, students and families will look back on his photos and remember the joy, connection, and community they experienced growing up in Lebanon. His involvement has brought him personal fulfillment, too. He knows his contribution is just one piece of a larger puzzle, but it is something he can offer—and something he knows brings joy to others.


Tom believes deeply in the power of volunteerism, a value shaped during his years in Boy Scouts and sustained through decades of service. His message to others is simple: “Just do it.” Every person has something to contribute, and every helping hand makes a difference. In a small town like ours, where families show up for one another across countless settings, Tom has witnessed firsthand how community strengthens schools—and how schools strengthen the town in return.


As he looks ahead, Tom hopes to see continued and increased community involvement in all aspects of Lebanon Public Schools—not just athletics, but the many programs, clubs, and activities that make our schools vibrant places to learn and grow. His example reminds us that our shared mission of Growing Learners, Cultivating Leaders, and Creating Legacies is brought to life each day through the generosity of individuals like him. We are grateful for Tom’s lasting impact and honored to celebrate him as this month’s Heart of the Harvest recipient.
