April and May ended on a high note with some exceptional student leadership. Five students stepped into the role of Principal for the Day, taking on the challenge with energy and enthusiasm. Whether they were helping with our House tie-dye event, preparing for Field Day, visiting classrooms, or supporting campus operations, each student demonstrated pride and commitment in handling the daily responsibilities of school leadership.

In 2023, Luling ISD proudly partnered with Texas State University to launch an exciting opportunity for two of our educators through the Emergent Leaders Program — a unique Master’s in Educational Leadership with Principal Certification. This innovative program is designed to prepare equity-driven school leaders ready to transform education at both the campus and district level. The 36-hour M.Ed. course sequence focuses on leadership, instructional strategies, cultural competency, community engagement, and action research — all aligned to meet the specific needs of Luling ISD. As part of our commitment to growing future leaders, Luling ISD covered 50% of the tuition for each teacher. Samantha Segovia and Garrett Kurtis will successfully complete the program and earn their Master’s degree this month! Please join us in congratulating them on this incredible achievement!

Our students' amazing creativity was on display last night at the Third Annual Performing Arts Visual Arts Showcase (PAVA)! Attendees listened to the junior high and high school bands and our fifth grade students' ukulele performances, watched the fashion show exhibiting the creativity of our costumers and the movie trailer they produced, and also viewed the various mediums of visual arts students created. We are so proud of our students and grateful to everyone who came out to support their talents. Thank you for helping us celebrate the power of the arts!

We are proud to announce that Luling ISD is officially a Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA) district — and we are celebrating our first group of 11 outstanding educators who have earned TIA designations through this rigorous program! To mark the occasion, we pulled out all the stops for a surprise reveal that truly matched the moment: - Our amazing Luling High School Drumline set the tone with high energy - Cheerleaders brought the spirit - Board members, district leaders, and campus administrators were on hand to celebrate - Each designated teacher received flowers, a cake, a district sweatshirt, and a giant custom poster proudly displaying their designation level The Teacher Incentive Allotment is part of a statewide effort to recognize and reward teacher excellence. Designated teachers receive a significant annual increase to their salary and keep that designation for five years. We are incredibly proud of them and excited about what this means for the future of our students and staff. We are working to expand the eligibility to more and more teachers each year. Please join us in congratulating our first TIA teachers!
