Lt. Governor Denn listens to Mrs. McMullen's 2nd grade class do silly voices and dances!

Harrington, Del. – On Wednesday, February 19th, Lt. Governor Matt Denn visited Lake Forest South Elementary School which was a 2013 winner of the state’s Reward and Recognition School Awards, known informally as the state’s Academic Achievement Awards.

 

During his visit to Lake Forest South, the Lt. Governor toured classrooms, spoke with students, teachers and administrators, and sat in on a 3rd grade PLC.

 

The Reward and Recognition School awards were created by legislation spearheaded by the Lt. Governor and passed by the Delaware General Assembly in 2009. Winners were selected based on 2012-13 data. Lake Forest South Elementary School is a Recognition School, meaning they were chosen for exceptional performance and/or closing the achievement gap. This year, 2 Reward and 15 Recognition schools received $50,000 each. The announcement was made by Lt. Governor Denn and Department of Education Secretary Mark Murphy on October 15th, 2013.
