Next Steps for the New High School Project in Duncanville
We recently shared details about Duncanville City Council’s denial of our rezoning request for the new high school. We are still hopeful for a resolution through normal channels with city leadership. But, it became clear that direct action was necessary to move forward and provide relief. Read the full message from Dr. Brent Wilson.
Celebrating Student Success
Last month, Life School earned a ‘B’ district rating from the Texas Education Agency for 2024–2025—and an ‘A’ in College, Career & Military Readiness. While these results reflect the district’s intentional strategies, the real celebration is for our students—the ones who show up, work hard, and grow every day.
Every lesson, project, and challenge is an opportunity for students to develop skills, explore new ideas, and reach their potential. From innovative programs like our 4-day school week to targeted learning supports and career-focused experiences, everything we do is designed to help students thrive—because at Life School, it’s not just school. It’s Life.
This rating is a milestone, but the true measure of success is the growth, dedication, and achievements of our students—and we are proud to celebrate them.
Nurturing Leaders with Strong Character: A Collaborative Effort
At Life School, we believe that developing strong character and leadership is a shared responsibility essential for student success. As the National PTA reminds us, “the greatest predictors of achievement are not income or status, but a supportive home environment, clear expectations, and family involvement in education.”
We are committed to creating a welcoming culture where parents and guardians can volunteer, collaborate, and help instill values like respect, empathy, and perseverance at home. Together, by celebrating student growth and working toward common goals, we empower children to become responsible, ethical, and informed LifeLeaders.
