Message from Sandy Lewandowski

Welcome to Intermediate District 287! This is an exciting time to be part of the Intermediate District 287 community. Whether you are a student, parent, staff member, board member, or community member, it is our goal to invite you to join us in fulfilling our mission to serve our unique learners.

Now more than ever, we must prepare our students to thrive in school, in the work world, in college, and in our communities. There is nothing more urgent than addressing achievement disparities, which is why District 287’s strategic plan focuses on student outcomes, racial equity, and excellence in services.

The work ahead will require each and every one of us to contribute to the success of our future.

Sandra Lewandowski, Ed.S.
Superintendent
