District Goal Setting Opportunity
C6 Compass Group - LJC6 Strategic Planning
We had an amazing group of educators who spent a long June afternoon together to discuss future goals for the LJC6 School District. The Compass group reviewed perception data from staff and families and prioritized some key focus areas.
This was just the first step, we will continue to work with our community to revise our CSIP 2030 document and to draft focused goal statements for Board approval.
These PROPOSED focus areas included:
- Review of current curriculum at all levels to ensure resources support achievement
- Focus on increasing the expectations and rigor of our classrooms and learning
- Strengthen math and science learning opportunities
- Work on classroom level communication
- Continue to review and improve district level communication channels
- Continue behavior and student support training for all staff
- Build/offer supports for students behavioral or mental health needs
- Continue a focus on small/appropriate class sizes
- Continue renovations and improvements in facilities which include safety & restrooms
- Make decisions on the old high school/primary building
- Review technology use in the classrooms; balance tech with other engaging learning
- Initiate a district level tech committee for review of instructional use and hardware/software purchases
- Review leadership retention efforts, delegation of information and/tasks
- Continue to improve teacher retention options including salaries and instructional supports/materials

FYI! Senate Bill 68 - This will affect your MS HS children.
What you need to know - Cell Phones & School Legislation
SB 68 has passed both the House and the Senate, LJC6, along with all districts in the state of MO, will be working to respond to this legislation. It still needs the Governor's signature to become law, but it is assumed he will sign. While many of us champion less use of cell phones for our kids, we know that change like this might be difficult and for some worrisome. We will continue to communicate our district plans as they are developed. Our elementary and MS students have been attending school under these expectations. Yet, this law will restrict HS students at all hours of the school day, which is a change for them.
ELECTRONIC PERSONAL COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES
(Section 162.207)
Beginning in the 2025-26 school year, each school district and charter school shall adopt a written policy regarding students' possession or use of electronic personal communication devices. Such a policy shall be designed to promote students' educational interests and ensure a safe, effective working environment for staff and volunteers. The act defines an "electronic personal communications device" as a portable device that is used to initiate, receive, store, or view communication, information, images, or data electronically.
At a minimum, the policy shall prohibit students from using or displaying these devices from the beginning until the end of the school day, including, but not limited to, during instructional time, meal times, breaks, time between classes, and study halls. The policy shall also outline disciplinary procedures for violations and include exceptions for students who need devices due to specific educational or health needs, such as individualized education plans or 504 plans under federal law. Exceptions may allow device use in emergencies, as defined in the act, or for authorized educational purposes. The policy shall be published on the school district's or charter school's website, and school employees or volunteers shall be immune from liability if they act in good faith and follow the policy's disciplinary procedures. This provision shall expire on August 28, 2032.
Youth, MS & HS Sports Camps - UPDATED
You can still register for JULY camps!
Parent Notification: Chromebook & Google Services Consent Required
Dear Lone Jack Families,
As part of our updated Acceptable Use Policy (AUP), all parents or guardians must sign a consent form before their student is issued a Chromebook device.
This requirement ensures that Lone Jack Schools remain aligned with Google’s policies. Specifically, for students under 18 using Google Workspace for Education, schools must obtain parental or guardian consent before granting access to certain Additional Google Services, including YouTube, Google Earth, and Google Maps.
Please note: Beginning March 2025, Google now requires schools to reconfirm this consent on an annual basis.
Your cooperation helps us provide a safe, secure, and policy-compliant digital learning environment for all students.
Thank you for your support,
Lone Jack C6 School District
