A Note From Our Executive Director of School Quality
I believe strongly that great teaching requires an authentic connection between teachers, students, and parents. To achieve the best for our students, we must work together as a team. We are on the same roster looking to achieve the same goal. That goal is excellence for our students.
It is such a privilege and honor to serve the community and stakeholders of Lake Forest Charter School. Let’s work together and SOAR together.
Educationally yours,
Dr. Ryan D. DeRousselle
