Educating in the 21st Century
In 2014, Lynchburg City Schools began a new and exciting journey—one that has supported the LCS mission of, “Every Child, By Name and By Need, to Graduation and Beyond.” We set a course for meeting the 21st Century needs of our students through our LCS-ONE initiative, which has provided a personal computing device (laptops) for students in grades 6 through 12. During the 2020-21 school year, to support the remote learning model in the division's Return to Learn plan, LCS issued devices to students in grades 3-5. We are excited to provide Chromebooks to all LCS students in grades 2-12 as we return to full-time, in-person learning for the 2021-22 school year.
