Welcome back, Fighting Farmers! Welcome back, Fighting Farmers!

Dear Lewisville High School Feeder Families,


On behalf of LHS, I’d like to extend a warm welcome to the 2025–26 school year! Whether your child is just beginning their educational journey in elementary school, navigating the exciting middle school years, or already walking the halls of Lewisville, we are all part of one vibrant community.


One of the great joys of being part of the LHS feeder pattern is seeing how our students grow through each stage of school, supported every step of the way by dedicated families, staff, and neighbors. From the classroom to the stage to the playing field, every experience builds toward the moment we proudly welcome them as high school graduates.


This year, I invite you and your family to join us in celebrating the many opportunities our schools provide. Come cheer on the Farmers at a football game, attend one of our fine arts performances, or participate in the community events that bring us all together. These moments not only showcase the incredible talents of our students but also strengthen the connections that make our feeder pattern so special.


Thank you for your continued support of our schools and our students. I look forward to seeing you throughout the year at LHS events and in our community. In Lewisville, we’re building a long maroon line of community, excellence, and pride.

TECC-E Expands Student Opportunities

Lewisville ISD proudly unveiled three new and modified spaces at TECC East: a new Auto Tech & Off-Road Diesel shop, a Dental Assisting lab and a new Welding space to meet the needs of this rapidly expanding program. Serving students from all five LISD high school feeder communities, these additions ensure career and technical education opportunities reach across our entire district. All of this was made possible by LISD voters in 2017, who chose to show their support for the future of LISD's CTE programs. SEE MORE PHOTOS

Ms. Raddatz: Lewisville Learning Center

Ms. Raddatz was there for me for my entire high school career. She was the reason I was okay going through the doors every morning, and a safe place when my mind needed it. I haven't ever met another counselor who loved her job so much. I wouldn't have graduated without her.

Mrs. Edelen: Valley Ridge Elementary

Mrs. Edelen provided my daughter a great foundation for her kindergarten year. I know she does not teach kindergarten anymore, but she does a fabulous job in 1st Grade now a days. Mrs. Edelen has great classroom management with her students along with building a good rapport with her kids. I witnessed this as I volunteered at class events and field trips. Mrs. Edelen is still so sweet to my daughter since we run into her around town and she always says hi to her and our family. You rock!
