The Colorado Department of Education released its 2024 preliminary School and District Performance Framework, designating Lewis-Palmer School District 38 as Accredited with Distinction, Colorado’s highest education performance rating. 

“I am incredibly proud of this district’s high level of achievement as it is a reflection of the dedication, hard work and collaboration between our students, educators, and families,” said Dr. Stacie Datteri, Superintendent. “While we are committed to continuous improvement, we remain focused on ensuring all students have opportunities to reach their full potential in D38.”

D38 has received this designation every year since it was established in 2009. Only 17 school districts in Colorado, or 9% of all districts, received this designation in 2024.
