"Thank You" 
 LCISD Principals, Assistant Principals and Support Staff
Lamar Consolidated Independent School District (LCISD) 

Thank you!  Your suggestions, recommendation, ideas and comments have helped in so many ways.  
It is through teamwork, trust and respect that the Safe to Learn Community Pilot Project has evolved into what it is today. 
In 2011, Dolores E. Beaugez, MA, Founder of Safe to Learn, was given the opportunity to complete an independent research study, Balancing School Safety and Academic Goals at Lamar Consolidated Independent School District.  The information gathered, as well as the data, was used to help identify specific projects that could be used to supplement their school safety programs.   By 2013 a group of principals and assistant principals volunteered to participate in the Safe to Learn Community  Pilot Project at  LCISD.  First, each principal and assistant principal was asked to read Ada Rosario Dolch’s  Principles for Principals - Leading the Way to School Safety.  Next they reviewed the original Leadership and Safety Series and provide suggestions for expanding the Leadership and Safety Series. During 2014-2015 all  LCISD principals and assistant principals were asked to read the updated Leadership and Safety Series.  Several principals and assistant principals were also asked to to read school safety eBooks written by subject matter experts.  Many provided additional suggestions and recommendations that will help guide the revisions of the 2015-2016 Leadership and Safety Series.
