As we anticipate the start of a wonderful new school year, LCPS is asking for back to school photos. The comms team will be gathering back to school photos of students and will feature them on Super News, the newscast for LCPS.
Parents, please post photos in the comments.


Today, LCPS Superintendent Ignacio Ruiz joined the KFOX14 Morning News team to discuss the excitement of a new school year and some of the initiatives the district will focus on regarding the instructional framework and strategic planning. Superintendent Ruiz also highlights the addition of electric school buses.
