BACK TO SCHOOL BASICSLISDLancaster ISD Summer Project InformationLancaster ISD is committed to providing the best education to help our students achieve success. We in the Lancaster Independent School District are striving to keep students reading throughout the summer. Reading for pleasure through summer instills in our children that reading is a pleasurable and life-long activity.

All students currently enrolled in Pre-Kintergarten through 11th grade are required to complete a summer reading and math project. This will keep your child reading and will help him/her achieve more in the years to come.

All students will be responsible for completing the projects of his/her grade. All projects will be assessed as a major grade the first six weeks of school. Projects are due the first day of school, August 22, 2011.

Adopters agree to adopt a section of the city for a minimum of one year. They pick up litter in their section at least once per month using trash bags supplied by the City, which then picks

up and disposes of the filled bags after each clean up.
