Message from Superintendent Keith Lewis

I am excited about the opportunity to join the DonorsChoose District Partnership Program because it opens up new opportunities for teachers to fund projects that will help them provide the kind of educational experiences our students need to be prepared to thrive in the 21st Century.

By partnering with DonorsChoose, we can better support Douglas County School District teachers who are creating lessons that increase students’ excitement about coming to school every day. We appreciate this opportunity and look forward to a lasting partnership to better education for our students.
