Student Services
The Student Services department at Lexington One supports our students by
- Creating Optimal Learning Environments: We manage enrollments, school choice, and zoning to ensure students are placed in schools that best suit their individual needs. This includes factors like class size, academic programs, and proximity to home. Our goal is to create supportive learning environments that cater to their intellectual, cultural, and social development.
- Promoting Student Health and Wellness: Our team coordinates with school nurses to implement preventative healthcare measures and minimize illnesses that can hinder learning. We ensure students have the physical and emotional well-being necessary to thrive in school.
- Building Positive Behavior Practices: Student Services collaborates with school administrators and parents to address student behavior concerns. We work to develop positive behavior strategies and, when necessary, handle expulsion hearings to maintain a safe and respectful learning atmosphere for all.
- Safe and Efficient Transportation: The Student Services department oversees transportation for the entire district. Our team meticulously plans and reviews bus routes, prioritizing student safety and efficiency. With over 14,000 miles traveled daily by our dedicated bus drivers, we ensure a smooth and secure commute for all students.
By focusing on these diverse yet crucial aspects of student life, Lexington County School District One's Student Services department plays a vital role in fostering a successful and enriching educational experience for every student.
