LES Services

This program is designed to support learners of English. No matter a student's language background, we have supports in place to develop a foundation in the English language for students who would benefit from this service. To qualify for ESL, students must be identified as having a home language other than English and qualify via assessment scores on the ELPA21 Screener.

The mission of the Lenox Gifted and Talented program is to provide challenging and enriching opportunities for exceptional students in the intellectual, creative, visual, and performing arts domains. Gifted and talented students must receive experiences that incorporate meaningful learning objectives and capitalize on student choice, high-level thinking/questioning, deeper learning, and real world skills. In offering differentiated curriculum in the regular classroom as well as specialized enrichment activities and/or acceleration, all gifted and talented students are challenged, and their individualized needs are met.

Students who are four years-old by September 15th are eligible for preschool services during the accompanying school year. We offer a morning and afternoon session and serve a maximum of 20 students during each session. Lunch is served to morning session students, while students in the afternoon class enjoy a snack. Busing to registered daycares is available during the midday transition and traditional busing routes are available to preschool students before or after school. Students are assessed with the GOLD assessment and follow the IQPPS (Iowa Quality Preschool Program Standards). 

Our student council is a student-led organization focused on community betterment and nourishing a learning environment conducive to growth. Students in grades 2-6 who are interested can apply to join the council annually. Goals and action plans for the council are determined annually by the student council members.
