Information regarding the consideration of a capital improvement project for the main school building and for the construction of a transportation maintenance facility will be shared at a public hearing 11/21/24 in the school cafeteria at 6pm. The capital project vote will take place from 11am-8pm on 12/17/24 in the main lobby. We continue to improve our campus for our students and staff to ensure that they are learning in a clean, comfortable, and safe environment. This project work will also include the construction of a transportation maintenance facility that will service our diesel powered buses. This project work is critical to maintaining and extending the life of our school buses.

Lisbon Central School held our first Positivity Project Assembly of the 2024-2025 school year this morning for our Junior Kindergarten through 6th grade students. P2 assemblies are student-led by our 6th graders, who are put in charge of planning, organizing, and running our program. The Positivity Project is our school-wide character education curriculum dedicated to empowering youth to build positive relationships by recognizing the character strengths in themselves and others. Since the beginning of the school year, students have learned about Bravery, Creativity, Curiosity, Integrity, Open-Mindedness, and Teamwork. Today, students were honored and celebrated for demonstrating one of these important character strengths. Congratulations to our award recipients and our 6th graders on a job well done!

Fall Ball is just 10 days away for grades 7-12!
