Welcome to Elementary School 50 in Lyric (Opening Fall 2027)

A new elementary school is coming to serve families in the Lyric community—designed with the future in mind and built to support every student’s growth, curiosity, and sense of belonging.

This school will reflect Douglas County School District’s commitment to strong academics, meaningful relationships, and safe, supportive learning environments. As planning continues, we look forward to sharing more about the school’s identity, programs, and opportunities for students and families.

Enrollment is anticipated to open in November 2026. More details will be shared as we get closer.
