 Our weekly speaker at Rotary was Mr. Bill Lee, with LISD Marketing. Mr. Lee explained that the district markets itself now as a hedge against students leaving the district to attend charter schools, private schools, home schooling and digital learning (online). LISD has an aggressive plan to ensure parents are more informed on the programs provided to students and thus avoid loosing students to other educational institutions. Thanks for the information, Bill! |
