Principal Welcome

Dear Lyerly Students and Families,

It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to a new school year at Lyerly Elementary School. I am truly honored to serve as the principal of such a special school, which is filled with hardworking students, a dedicated and talented staff, and a supportive and engaged community. I look forward to partnering with you to ensure a successful and rewarding school year for your child.

At Lyerly Elementary, our focus is to foster a safe, nurturing, and academically challenging environment where every student can grow and thrive. We are committed to promoting character, encouraging lifelong learning, and supporting each child’s journey to success.

We proudly implement the RCA House System to build strong relationships, promote teamwork, and reinforce positive behavior throughout our school. This system helps create a sense of belonging and community while also encouraging leadership, responsibility, and school spirit in every student.

We strive to make everyone who walks through our doors feel welcomed, respected, and valued. This welcoming atmosphere helps create a positive learning environment where students are always at the heart of our decisions. We are excited about the possibilities the new school year holds and look forward to working together as a team to support our students.

Let’s make this school year the best one yet!

Sincerely,
Mike Shank 
Principal
Lyerly Elementary School
