School Mission:

At the Connie Lekas School, our goal is to provide an educational environment that will prepare students for success in post-secondary settings. By meeting students at their entry points, we engage students in different modalities of learning. The shared efforts of students, parents, and staff result in lifelong learners, problem solvers, and productive citizens in the global community.

School Vision

The Connie Lekas School is committed to providing Excellence in Education for all students. The school will design programs and 21st-century learning experiences that promote academic achievement and optimal post-secondary outcomes aligned to the personal and social growth of every student. As a richly diverse community of learners that values all its members, Connie Lekas School will assume a central role in the community by linking parents, local agencies, and businesses to the school.

Students Learn Best

• When their social, emotional, and physical needs are met, they feel safe and supported
• When their interest/fascinations and “need to know” motivate learning
• When they are respected for who they are and are taught at their entry point using different modalities for learning
• When they have a communication system that allows access to learning
• When they have access to multiple forms of technology in alignment with universal design for instruction for learning
• When they can participate in pair sharing to deepen learning
