Final Message from Dr. D.
Dear Colt Families,
As we come to the close of another school year, I find myself filled with a mixture of emotions—gratitude, pride, and a touch of sadness—as I write this final message to you as principal.
For the past four years, it has been an incredible honor and privilege to serve as the principal of LCE. We have come so far together over the past four years from COVID only online instruction, to modified days, and then finally fully back together. Supporting LCE through all of this was challenging for all, but LCE is such a remarkable school we stuck together for our kids, thank you all for helping to make it happen. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have worked alongside such a dedicated and talented staff, supportive families, and—most importantly—our amazing students. Together, we have built a caring and inclusive community that celebrates learning, growth, and kindness.
Each day, I have been inspired by the curiosity, resilience, and spirit of our students. Watching them learn and grow has been one of the greatest joys of my career. Our staff’s unwavering commitment to nurturing and challenging each learner has made this school a place where students truly thrive, and I could not be prouder of what we have accomplished together.
As many of you know, I will be leaving LCE at the end of this school year and retiring in November. While I look forward to this next chapter with anticipation, I will deeply miss seeing your children daily, sharing laughter, and the sense of purpose that comes from being part of such a special school community and awesome kids.
Thank you for your support, your partnership, and the many memories we’ve created together. This school—and every one of you—will always hold a special place in my heart. 💖
Wishing you all a joyful summer and continued success in the years to come.
With deep appreciation,
Dr. D.
Principal
It's A Great Day To Be A Colt!
