Lilyana Principal Update
Lilyana Family
It is an honor to introduce myself as the new principal of Lilyana Elementary School in Prosper Independent School District. Together with the school community of Lilyana Elementary, we will build a rich culture rooted in dedication and collaboration between staff, students and parents.
Everyone who enters Lilyana Elementary will feel the love of learning within our school. At Lilyana Elementary, we will work together to develop a culture that values and partners with teachers, students and parents. Establishing excellence will be important to our school as we create high expectations for all. I believe that students learn best when they are engaged with content that is relevant and meaningful. We will empower students to be thinkers, doers and leaders who are confident, collaborative and compassionate. Our work at Lilyana Elementary will be joyful, and everyone will be excited to come to school each day!
I look forward to working with the Lilyana school community to develop an exceptional school year beginning in August 2023. I can’t wait to open the doors and welcome you to Lilyana Elementary School! Please feel free to contact me with questions via email at jggrace@prosper-isd.net.
Best Regards,
Jo-Bina G. Grace
