Superintendent Northern's Message
Excitement is in the air as these and many more 2021 LHS Graduates look forward to tonight's Commencement Ceremony! I had the privilege to speak to the Seniors as they gathered at Levelland Academic Beginnings Center where they started their early childhood education. It is such a great feeling to see how all these students turned out! I am so proud of all of them and glad that we have the best school district!
Again, I want to thank everyone for all the hard work that has gone in to this school year. I know it has been different and has presented more stress than normal, You have done a SUPER job of preparing all our students for success!
Hope everyone has a great summer!
Jeff Northern,
LISD Superintendent
