Lancaster County teachers Celebrate Great Teaching
Reece Murphy

If the Celebration of Great Teaching event on Tuesday, Aug. 14, is any indicator, this is going to be a great year for Lancaster County School District and its teachers.
Though always a great celebration of the excellence district educators embody, this year’s event, with its theme “Ready for the Ride,” was bigger and better than ever before, an event that at times seemed as much a pep rally as a gathering of teachers.

Help for stuttering; complex disorder devastating for children and parents
New DVD for parents at Lancaster County Library
Parents eagerly anticipate the moment when their child first begins to talk, but for some parents it is a time of anxiety because their child struggles to get words out.
As many as five percent of preschool children nationwide have repetitions and prolongations of sounds severe enough to be of concern to their parents.
A new DVD in English and Spanish, Stuttering and Your Child: Help for Parents, helps parents detect stuttering and take action toward helping their child and is available now at Lancaster County Library.

LHS Spanish teacher wins district award
A love for language
There’s a slogan, written in Spanish, that Sandra Ovalles tells her students all the time. You can even find it from time to time on her blackboard.
It’s “nada es imposible, todo es posible,” which means “nothing is impossible, everything is possible” in English.
Ovalles believes you can achieve whatever you set your mind to, and she tries to help her students carry that same attitude – all through the teaching of language.
