I am pleased to share several positive changes underway within Lansing USD469, aimed at enhancing the educational experience for our students and supporting our dedicated staff members.
Firstly, I am excited to announce the adoption of a new evaluation system for our certified staff members. The Network for Educator Effectiveness (NEE), affiliated with the University of Missouri, will serve as the framework for this system. Grounded in research, NEE is designed to improve teaching and leadership practices, ensuring that our educators are equipped with the tools and support needed to excel in their roles.
Additionally, I am pleased to announce that starting next school year, we will partner with Morgan Hunter to staff our substitute teachers. Morgan Hunter has a strong track record of working with school districts in the Kansas City Metro area, and we anticipate a higher fill rate for substitute requests. This partnership will help ensure that students have uninterrupted learning, even without their regular classroom teacher.
I am encouraged by our students' positive growth from the fall to winter assessments. This progress is a testament to the dedication of our students, teachers, and support staff, as well as the unwavering support of our parents and community.
As always, thank you for your continued support of Lansing USD469. Your partnership is instrumental in our collective efforts to provide a high-quality education for all students.
