2022-2025 Three Year Strategic Plan Community Forum
We are in the process of drafting the next three-year strategic plan. The draft plan is based on feedback from the strategic plan survey and equity surveys that were administered over the last year. The three main areas of the draft plan are:
1) Culture of Belonging
2) Equitable Educational Experiences
3) District Facilities, Technology, Business, and Communication
Please join us on Wednesday, May 25th at 5:30 pm in the LMS cafeteria to participate in round-table discussions about the draft strategic plan. We will be providing pizza, salad, and beverages. To make sure we order enough food/beverages please sign-up here by Friday, May 20th.
The draft strategic plan will be sent to you in advance of the meeting.
Lebanon is Ranked One of the Top Schools in the State!
US News and World Report ranked Lebanon High School #7 compared to all schools in New Hampshire. This is an amazing accomplishment and meaningful recognition of not only our High School but Lebanon, Grantham, and Plainfield staff members and students PreK-12!

Join our students, our schools, and our community to raise $300,000 to bring back this essential resource. For more information or to donate, click here.
Top Five Reasons to Help Bring Back the Lebanon Track

2. LHS cross country and track & field programs will have a new, safe home to train and compete
3. Community resource for non-profits to hold fundraisers for meaningful causes
4. Economic driver for hosting meets and events
5. Promotes healthy lifestyles and builds lifelong bonds and friendships
MLS & HSS/LHS Renovation Projects Update
We are working with the architect and construction manager to finalize the design plan for the MLS renovation project. Nationally, there are challenges with supply and demand for both subcontractors and materials such as steel. Our goal is to keep this project moving forward and begin construction this summer. The architect completed several walk-throughs of HSS/LHS and is finalizing the design concept. The HSS/LHS project will be bid next year to start construction in Summer 2023.
In closing, thank you for your continued support of our schools. I look forward to seeing you at our end-of-year events. Have a great weekend!
Dr. Joanne Roberts
