Public Notice
Vacancy Lenox School Committee
I am delighted to announce the results of the Morris School Assistant Principal Search: Ms. Holly Soules is scheduled to join the Morris School Family on July 1st as Asst. Principal. Ms. Soules is no stranger to Morris; her children are alumni. Ms. Soules comes to Morris as a school administrator from a neighboring school district.
The plan is to prepare Ms. Soules for assuming the principalship of the Morris School over the next 3 years . In year 4 (2027-2028 ), when Principal Kelley becomes the full-time Curriculum, Instruction, & Assessment Director for preK-grade 12, Ms. Soules should make a seamless transition to lead Morris already knowing the students, families, staff, culture, programs, and budget well.
Please join me in welcoming Holly Soules to the Lenox School Community!
It's National School Nurse Day
Thank you Nurse Shove and Nurse Drees!

On behalf of the students and staff of Lenox Public Schools - THANK YOU!
Thank you for the collaboration between the School Committee, Finance Committee, and Select Board in developing and supporting the school budget. Thank you for the Town Manager's expert guidance.
Thank you to the townspeople who turned out to vote UNANIMOUSLY to pass the school budget! We are fortunate to learn, teach, and work in a community where the value of public education is recognized and children are cherished.
With much gratitude for your support,

This morning Morris School students, families, and staff participated in the Massachusetts Safe Routes to School's Walk-to-School event. A large number of participants walked from Lilac Park and to the Morris School. The Lenox Police and Fire Departments ensured that everyone arrived safely.
Student/Parent Reunification Preparedness Underway at LPS -
Last Thursday, the Morris School, Lenox Police and Fire Departments, held a reunification drill. All students were relocated off campus and a small group of parents volunteered to come to the relocation site to test parent-student reunification procedures. While a reunification is statistically unlikely to occur, having a well thought out reunification plan will avoid a chaotic scene should a relocation event actually arise.
Yesterday, Trooper Guilbault, our State Police School Liaison, led a reunification training for LMMHS staff. Both Chief O’Briens and SRO Colvin participated.
U.S. News & World Report has released the list of schools nationwide that have achieved the status of U.S. News Best High Schools and LMMHS made the list!
Congratulations to the students and staff on achieving this honor!
Congratulations Principal Brenda Kelley on being named as Massachusetts Elementary School Principal of the Year!!!
“Principal Kelley epitomizes what it means to lead with compassion and empathy. Mrs. Kelley, through her kindness, warm personality, and compassionate nature, is able to navigate challenges and cultivate a remarkably positive learning environment. Through effective communication and a willingness to listen, Mrs. Kelley has built strong relationships with students, staff, parents, and community members, creating a sense of trust and unity that is truly exceptional ,” said, Parent of Morris Elementary School.
The entire Lenox School Community is proud of your extraordinary accomplishment!
