The Livingston Board of Education will hold a public meeting on Monday, April 5, 2021, at 7 p.m. A closed Executive Session will be held from 6 to 7 p.m. The public meeting agenda includes a tribute to LPS' Healthcare Heroes, discussion on the 2021-2022 School Budget, and an update on the district's Spring Forward 2021 plan.
Due to the current health crisis, we will continue to hold Board of Education meetings virtually until further notice. Meetings will be held in a webinar format during which participants will have the ability to ask questions and make comments. Registration is required. The meeting will be livestreamed on the district's Facebook page, @LivSchools.
Please read Dr. Block's Letter to the Community regarding assessments, which was emailed to all LPS families on Friday, March 26, 2021.

Dear Livingston Public Schools Community:
The perceived advantages that come with completing assessments remotely, and the desire to avoid in-class tests and quizzes, have increasingly become primary reasons for some students not to attend school in-person.

As we prepare to welcome more students back to our facilities on April 5th, we hope to reverse this trend. We want our students consistently in school, in person. READ MORE
