Welcoming, safe and student-centered

The School District of Lancaster believes in promoting and sustaining a positive school environment where all members feel welcomed, supported and safe in school: socially, emotionally, intellectually and physically. That’s why we embrace initiatives like Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports, restorative practices and a School Resource Officer program that allows local police officers to develop relationships with students and families.

At the start of 2025, School District of Lancaster Superintendent Dr. Keith Miles talks about our commitment to ensuring safe and welcoming schools for our students and staff, as well as the proactive steps we’ve taken over the past several years.
