Dear Lancaster School Community,
 
It is with great enthusiasm and optimism that I welcome you to the 2025–2026 school year! As Superintendent of the Lancaster School District, I am truly honored to continue serving our incredible students, staff, families, and community.
 
Each new school year brings fresh opportunities to grow, learn, and dream bigger—and this year is no exception. At Lancaster School District, we remain deeply committed to creating safe, inclusive, and engaging learning environments where every child is educated, nurtured, and inspired to reach their fullest potential. Our focus continues to be on the whole child, ensuring that academic, social, emotional, and physical needs are met with care and intentionality.
 
Thanks to the continued support of our community and the recent passage of Measure LS, we are making significant strides in modernizing our schools. These much-needed upgrades will transform our classrooms and campuses into 21st-century learning spaces that support innovation, collaboration, and equity. We are grateful for the trust you’ve placed in us, and we are excited to see these improvements come to life throughout the District.
 
We believe that educating our students is a shared responsibility, and strong partnerships with our parents and community are essential to our collective success. Together, we will work to support our students not only academically, but also in every aspect of their development—both inside and outside the classroom.
 
As we begin this school year, I want to reaffirm a core belief that guides all we do: Every student has the right to attend school and receive a high-quality education. We will continue to defend and uphold this right, ensuring that all our students feel valued, supported, and empowered to succeed.
 
Our commitment to academic excellence remains unwavering. We are focused on raising the bar for all learners, equipping them with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support. Let’s make the 2025–2026 school year one of growth, achievement, and inspiration for every student. Lancaster School District, where life’s journey takes flight!
With gratitude and excitement,
 
Dr. Paul Marietti
