Superintendent’s Welcome Back Message

 

Dear Lackland Parents, Students and Community Members,

I would like to welcome everyone to the 2022-2023 school year! We are excited about the new school year and look forward to great and wonderful things happenings as we educate our awesome military-connected students. We hope that you will take the time to be involved with our District and support our amazing students. I want to inform you about three new initiatives/programs that will be occurring this school year.

 The first initiative is the development of a new strategic plan for our District.  We will be working with our teachers, students, parents, and community members to collaborate on creating a five-year plan designed to improve our District. If you are interested in serving on this committee, please contact the Superintendent’s Office at 210-357-5002 or your child’s Principal.

Our second initiative will involve hosting a quarterly town hall for parent and community members to provide input and express any concerns about any of our school programs. These meetings will occur in the Lackland ISD Auditorium from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.  and will be held on: October 12, 2022, January 18, 2023, and April 5, 2023.

Our third initiative is the establishment of a Superintendent’s Student Advisory Council. The purpose of this council is to allow student representatives to provide feedback and input to the Superintendent regarding District and campus instructional programs, school activities, and school climate. The council will be made up of both elementary and secondary students. Student representatives from the elementary school will come from grades 3-5 (one each) and grades 6-12 (one each) at the secondary school. Campus Principals will select student representatives for the Council. Students will meet on designated dates with the Superintendent from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. Students will be provided lunch during the meeting and will be responsible for making up any missed classwork. Selected students must have parental permission to participate. We look forward to working with these young people to make our District better.

Wishing everyone a great school year!

Dr. Burnie L. Roper

Superintendent of Schools

 

Lackland ISD held its annual convocation at Pedrotti's Ranch. The entire staff loaded buses after a great breakfast and headed to the awesome venue. A day full of professional development and fun was had by all after hearing from Superintendent Dr. Burnie Roper and School Board President Mr. Brian Miller. Our School Liaison, Mrs. Fryer, and Ms. Gallegos from JBSA Lackland’s Child and Youth Programs supported team building activities for staff engagement and improved communications. Cybersecurity training was provided by Lacey Gosch from Judson ISD. Door prizes were donated by H.E.B., Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union, and Bigz Burger. A fantastic fajita lunch was enjoyed by all. 

Thank you to all who made this possible!

School Counselor Corner 

August 2022 

Welcome back to school from your school counselors, Ms. Dominguez and Mrs. Rodriguez!  

We are very excited to be working with Lackland Elementary students, families, and staff. Mrs. Rodriguez will be working with students in Pre-K – 2nd grade and Ms. Dominguez will be working with students in 3rd- 5th grade. As the school counselors at Lackland Elementary School, we help all students with social/emotional development, self-management, social skills, maintaining friendships, and we also provide support during various transitions in a student's life (e.g., family change, deployment, moving, etc.). We will be providing these services through the delivery of classroom guidance lessons, small groups, and meeting with students on an individual basis.  

We will meet with each classroom individually in all grades each month to provide guidance lessons which will be focusing on the specific needs of our school. Small group counseling will be offered to all students throughout the school year and is based on student need. We are also excited to share that we will be inviting parents and families to join us for “Coffee with the Counselors” during the school year, we will share more details on this later. 

We look forward to meeting you and working with our students to have a successful school year. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have additional questions!
