The month of October, 2016 is designated as Colorado Safe Schools Month. Littleton Public Schools will observe this month by sponsoring activities to promote safe schools. Student safety is everyone’s job. Safe schools contribute to the academic achievement of our students and we strive to make our schools positive and caring places for all. We ask the entire community to support our efforts to make our schools safe for every student. Below is a list of activities and resources for the schools.
School Climate Survey! During the month of October, all LPS schools will be administering the Comprehensive School Climate Inventory, an anonymous survey that gathers feedback from students, staff and parents about the school environment. This survey will address school safety, engagement, relationships, and the physical environment. We strongly encourage everyone to share their voice.
