Big News for Lyons CSD!

We are proud to share that Lyons Central School District has been awarded the BOOST Grant, providing over $1.2 million across the next 5 years to expand out-of-school time opportunities for students in grades 7–12!

The Lyons BOOST Project will offer year-round programming outside of school hours. Students will benefit from:
✅ Academic support & peer tutoring
✅ Workforce development, career prep, and paid internships
✅ Social-emotional learning activities
✅ Student-led family engagement events
✅ Partnerships with Peaceful Schools, Literacy Volunteers, and local businesses

This initiative will not only strengthen student achievement and career readiness but also foster leadership, community connections, and opportunities for every learner to thrive.

Thank you to all who supported this effort—we’re excited to begin this journey with our students and community!

This week, Superintendent Matthew Barr met with U.S. Senator Chuck Schumer to advocate for the continuation of grants that fund mental health services in our schools. He discussed the significant impact of grants that provide funding for mental health services in our schools. These grants help bring trained professionals to support students when they need it most, and our district has also established learning pathways for students interested in pursuing careers in helping professions, such as mental health.

This past weekend, Lyons came alive with hometown pride during the annual Peppermint Days Festival—and our LCSD students were right in the heart of it!

From marching in the parade to volunteering with local organizations and showing off their talents in community events, our students once again demonstrated what it means to be part of something bigger. Superintendent Dr. Barr also joined in the fun, serving as a judge for the always-adorable Kiddie Parade!

There’s nothing quite like small-town traditions, and we’re proud to see our students and staff helping to keep them going strong.

Last night’s 6th Grade Graduation was a celebration to remember as we honored the Class of 2031—our soon-to-be middle schoolers! A huge shoutout to our incredible 6th-grade teachers for guiding and supporting these students every step of the way. Special thanks to Mr. Askin, who delivered a personalized speech that had the entire class laughing uncontrollably, and to Class of 2025 Valedictorian Rita Romano, who shared thoughtful and inspiring advice for the journey ahead.
