💗 Lancaster ISD Stands Together for Breast Cancer Awareness 💗 At Lancaster ISD, we are committed to raising awareness and supporting those affected by breast cancer. As we observe Breast Cancer Awareness Month, let’s come together as a community to spread knowledge, offer support, and honor the brave individuals fighting this disease. Breast cancer affects millions, and early detection can save lives. We encourage everyone to take proactive steps, such as regular self-exams, scheduling mammograms, and learning about the risk factors. This month, we wear pink not only to show solidarity with survivors and those currently battling breast cancer but also to remember loved ones lost and to encourage education for early prevention. Together, we can make a difference! 💪💗

Reminder: Friday, October 11, is an Independent Learning Day, and Monday, October 14, is a district holiday for the State Fair of Texas. We will welcome students back to school on Tuesday, October 15, 2024.
