Criterion A
INQUIRING & ANALYZING
Poudre School District utilizes a ‘school of choice’ policy which enable students
to enroll in schools that are not in their neighborhood. Lesher Middle School
currently has around 40% of the school population that is there by “choice”. Many
forms of communication are used to inform the community of what Lesher has to offer and what
experiences the current students are having. One way we reach out to communicate is the Lesher website.
The picture on the top of the website is old and outdated. New pictures for the website are needed to
communicate what a great place Lesher is and why students want to come here.
Explain and Justify the Need:
What is the problem? What could you do to help solve the problem?
