A Message from Charles Lentz, Ed.D.
New Hope-Solebury School District Superintendent
As 2025 gets underway, I wanted to take a moment to share my deep appreciation to our entire Lion Community for an exceptional first half of the school year, full of growth, progress, and continued transformation. Our students, faculty, staff, board, and community have truly made New Hope-Solebury School District a place of excellence.
Since we kicked off our school year in August, our district has earned several accolades in the areas of overall academic achievement, sportsmanship, and leadership. I encourage you to check out the full details by reading our ‘Celebrating a Fall of Excellence’ post on our website.
Looking ahead, I am excited about the many activities and milestones in our district. This Spring, we’ll open our enhanced stadium complex, made possible by generous donors, and continue supporting our Lions Legacy 2030 projects, which includes modernizing facilities and exploring a one campus vision for the district. Our schools have enriching experiences planned for students, such as educational field trips, guest speakers, art and music activities, and mentorship opportunities. Additionally, there will be a focus on providing community service opportunities to help develop our Profile of a Graduate characteristics.
The district is committed to offering a comprehensive and immersive curriculum while prioritizing the emotional wellbeing of students. This includes new and updated sensory areas, expanded resources, and a collaborative support team to assist with mental health. The district fosters an inclusive environment for all learners, with planned activities like Challenge Day for 7th and 11th graders and a Cultural Speaker Series kicking off this Spring to promote acceptance and understanding.
Additionally, we are proud to be a resource to our entire community, offering numerous events and activities. This includes our engaging Lions Community School which offers adults a chance to learn a new skill, hobby, or gain new experience. Winter session begins early February, with registration opening January 10th.
The New Hope-Solebury School District is dedicated to its mission of inspiring and empowering all students to become passionate, confident, and innovative learners who can thrive in a diverse and global society. We are focused on successfully implementing the 2024-2027 comprehensive plan to ensure that all learners are well-positioned for a world full of opportunities.
Thank you for your continued support.
