Community Agreements

As a national leader and legend in the Civil Rights movement, John R. Lewis believed in the importance of everyone doing their PART to move our society forward in a positive direction.  As members of the John Lewis school community we believe it is essential that all students and staff do their PART to make Lewis a place that is welcoming, inclusive and values the diversity and success of all Lancers.
