At Lancaster Elementary, we are proud to be a part of Orange County Public Schools, where our shared mission is to ensure every student graduates prepared and inspired for a thriving future. We are committed to the academic success and personal growth of every student by providing a superior learning experience, essential life skills, and a wide range of opportunities.
We believe all students can learn and achieve at high levels, and we are dedicated to meeting their individual needs to help them reach their full potential. Our passionate and highly skilled educators plan, deliver, and assess instruction based on the Florida State Standards. They utilize the OCPS scope and sequence, the district’s literacy plan, and the adopted curriculum to provide high-quality instruction that is rigorous, engaging, and relevant.
Students at Lancaster are immersed in a rich literacy environment that exposes them to grade-level, instructional-level, and independent-level texts across both informational and literary genres. To foster a love for reading, we implement the Beanstack program, which tracks students' reading minutes and motivates them to set and reach personal goals.
As a digital pilot school, Lancaster Elementary equips every student with a device, enabling them to access instructional content and engage in project-based, research-driven learning. Our approach inspires curiosity, encourages discovery, and supports the development of responsible digital citizens.
At the heart of our literacy instruction are communication, collaboration, and continuous learning, which create a dynamic and supportive educational environment where every student can thrive.
