Lisbon Schools is looking to implement more efforts to implement district career and academic plans (DCAP) over the next school year.

High school principal Jack Leighty explained that the district teachers are being taught about how to implement DCAP to benefit students at the district. The high school also benefited with Perkins money to purchase some new equipment for different classes.

That includes a gaming tower computer that the video classes will benefit from usage for rendering in digital videos, a couple more drones for videography work and a heat press for creating t-shirts for Lisbon, INC.

The district has also visited with Iowa College Access Network (ICAN) for efforts that will work in DCAP efforts for the district. “We’re hoping to allow students to utilize Pride Time throughout the year to be able to visit with college visits or looking at different career pathways,” Leighty said.
