Class Act Award
Through the Class Act Award, Lawrence Public Schools and Truity Credit Union honor outstanding classified staff whose actions, character, and teamwork exemplify the best qualities of a teammate.
Once every semester, the Class Act Award is given to an effective team member who fosters cooperation and open communication, excels in accomplishing professional goals, promotes trust and respect, and demonstrates leadership, accountability, positivity, dignity, and a strong work ethic. These Class Acts, while individuals, also represent the dedicated efforts of their entire team. Each recipient elevates their team and plays an integral role in their classroom, in their building, and in Lawrence Public Schools.
Nominate a Staff Member
Nominate deserving classified staff anytime by sending a letter of nomination to the Superintendent of Schools in care of the Communications Office at jake.potter@usd497.org or Lawrence Public Schools, 110 McDonald Drive, Lawrence, KS 66044.
