Connecting@LPS means creating a sense of belonging and community. It involves fostering open communication, mutual respect, and emotional support, which contribute to a positive and inclusive learning environment.  Connecting@LPS means fostering meaningful relationships that honor and celebrate the diverse cultural backgrounds of students, staff, and families.  At LPS, we naturally integrate students’ identities, languages, traditions, and worldviews into everyday school life and learning.  When students feel connected, they are more likely to be engaged, motivated, and empowered to contribute fully to the school community.
