Introducing Thrive Thursday! Every Thursday, we’re shining a spotlight on the incredible individuals who make our LCPS team thrive! This week, we’re kicking off Thrive Thursday with a spotlight on staff members -Sean Barham, Matt Dawkins and Carrie Hale—who over the weekend played a critical role in a successful search and rescue mission to locate a pair of hikers lost in the Organ Mountains during dangerous cold temperatures. In addition to their roles with the district, these individuals volunteer their time as part of a local search and rescue team, demonstrating their commitment to making our schools and our community a place where all learners thrive. Their efforts remind us that the spirit of teamwork thrives not only in our schools but also in every corner of our community.
