Lake Forest South Elementary School, pictured above, is one of two schools in Delaware to be named 2024 National Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Distinguished Schools.
Two Delaware schools have been nationally recognized for closing the achievement gap and supporting the academic growth of all our students.
Rehoboth Elementary School ( Cape Henlopen School District ) and Lake Forest South Elementary School ( Lake Forest School District ) have been named 2024 National Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Distinguished Schools for the success of their students.
“We are committed to providing every student with the resources and support they need to succeed,” said Kevin Truitt, principal of Lake Forest South. “Being recognized at the national level reinforces the importance of that mission and inspires us to continue striving for excellence.”
He said the school has spent the past four years using the Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) process to improve results at Lake Forest South.
