Dear Graham Local School Families,

I am thrilled to welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year at Graham Local Schools! Whether you are returning to our district or joining us for the first time, I am honored to serve as your superintendent and to work alongside our dedicated staff, talented students, and supportive community.

Our district remains committed to providing an educational experience that prepares every student for success, both in the classroom and beyond. As we enter this new school year, our focus will be on achieving the goals outlined in our strategic plan: enhancing educational excellence, fostering collaboration, and maximizing student achievement. These goals guide everything we do, from the curriculum we deliver to the opportunities we provide for our students.

We believe in the power of partnership and collaboration, and I encourage you to be actively involved in your child’s education. Whether through attending school events, volunteering, or simply staying informed about your child’s progress, your engagement makes a significant difference. Together, we can create a nurturing and challenging environment where every student can thrive.

This year, we have some exciting initiatives and events planned, all aimed at enriching your child’s learning experience. From career exploration activities to new leadership opportunities, we are committed to helping each student discover their passions and reach their full potential.

I would also like to take a moment to acknowledge and thank our teachers, staff, and administrators for their tireless efforts in preparing for the new school year. Their dedication to our students and community is truly inspiring, and I am confident that their hard work will translate into a successful year for all.

As we begin this journey together, please know that my door is always open. I welcome your feedback, questions, and ideas as we work to make Graham Local Schools the best it can be for our students.

Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead! Go Falcons!

Warm regards,
Chad Lensman
Superintendent
