Dear Families,
We had an amazing time celebrating National School Choice Week at iLEAD Lancaster! Our talented Spirit Squad brought the energy, and we couldn’t be prouder of all our learners and their achievements. We are so grateful for the opportunity to provide personalized, project-based learning at our free, public charter school. Together, we’re empowering future leaders!
Welcome, February! This month, our Learner Outcome focus is on becoming empathetic citizens. We encourage learners to actively cultivate an understanding and appreciation for the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of others. This focus aims to foster a supportive and inclusive environment where everyone is valued and respected. Through various activities and discussions, learners identify and respond to the stories of those around them, building essential skills for positive social interaction and collaboration.
To all who are interested in joining us at iLEAD Lancaster, we are pleased to let you know that we currently have limited seats available for this spring and we are accepting applications for our 2025-26 enrollment lottery. Simply fill out our enrollment application to get started. In addition, we are offering campus tours of iLEAD Lancaster. RSVP here. We look forward to meeting you and learning how we can support your children on their individualized learning journeys!
If you have any questions for our team, please don’t hesitate to reach out to info@ileadlancaster.org or (661) 722-4287. And be sure to follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay connected.
With gratitude,
Deborah Autrey
School Director
