• Added extensive safety measures to our schools including locked vestibules, new communication systems, School Resource Officers, Security Aides, access card systems, background checks and more,
• Implemented Lakeland Instructional Strategies for Success in all classrooms,
• Raised grades 3-8 test scores to some of the highest proficiency levels in our region,
• Established new technology initiatives including One to One Chrome Books and IPADS for all students
• Added mental health clinics, Bridge programs for school phobic students, a state of the art ACE Academy for non-traditional students,
•  Increased special services including a new elementary ASPIRE unit and a Life Skills apartment,
• Replaced the stadium turf fields at both high schools, and adding artificial turf multi-purpose baseball-softball and multi-use fields at both high schools,
• Raised our Moody’s financial rating to Aa1,
•  Replaced and continue to replace aging roofs throughout the District,
• Air-conditioned all classrooms,
•  Enhanced significantly communications through a new website, social media and cable channels,
