Coming Soon! New Website for Lorena ISD

The Lorena ISD district and campus websites are in the process of a complete redesign to increase efficiency, making them more timely and useful. The overhaul of our website gives each school a clean and updated online look to replace a design that was already seven years old.
In July 2012, visitors will notice a few changes to the website including:

• School and District news distinctively displayed on each homepage
• Photos of LISD students displayed online 
• The addition of Apps to help you connect better with the schools

Here's a little preview of what's to come:

New Scoreboard Sponsorship

Lorena ISD has a special opportunity for companies or individuals interested in sponsoring a new scoreboard for Leopard Stadium.  The stadium is host to athletic and other extracurricular events year round.  Anyone interested in any level of sponsorship is encouraged to contact Jeff Linnstaedter (jefflinnstaedter@lorenaisd.net) at the Lorena ISD Administration building or call (254)857-3239.

Thank you for supporting the Leopards and Lorena ISD!
