In a spectacular display of athleticism and teamwork, the 7th-grade girls 4X100 Meter Relay Team from Life Middle School Waxahachie has surged to the top, setting a new standard at both the state and national levels.
Life School proudly announces the participation of approximately 50 students in this year's Special Olympics. This year marks a special milestone as elementary students participated for the first time since before the pandemic.
It’s no secret that teaching has become one of the most challenging professions one can endure. Since the COVID-19 outbreak, public education has experienced a mass exodus of teachers not only leaving their schools, but exiting the profession altogether.
Student learning loss, behavior issues, parent disengagement and mental health concerns are among the chief reasons teachers have left their jobs. For school districts, attracting and retaining the highest quality teachers has become a significant challenge.
Life School has received full system approval from the Texas Education Agency under the Teacher Incentive Allotment (TIA). The approval grants Life School nearly $300,000 to recognize TEA-designated Teachers this year. Only 25% of districts in the state currently hold this designation, according to the Texas Public Charter School Association.
