Leawood Families,
Check out the NEW newsletter format! We surveyed you, you gave us feedback, and we listened. This is a work in progress, but our goal is to get you a newsletter format compatible with your mobile device, free from lots of images and ads, and information that can be updated in real time. Use the links at the bottom of this section or the navigation bar to skip to different sections OR continue scrolling for the entire newsletter below.
I hope this finds you well rested, refreshed, and filled with special memories of your summer. I am always excited when our school year is just around the corner. Before we know it, these halls will be filled with laughter and learning. As always, our custodial crew, led by our Facilities Manager Steve Sarine, did an amazing job getting the building spic and span and ready for another year.
Thanks to our office staff who managed to work through all the Jeffco Connect issues last week during registration. If you still have not confirmed that your student will be returning to Leawood by completing the Jeffco Connect process, Kathy sent you another email on Friday.
For lots more information, be sure to check out our website at www.leawoodlions.us and like us on Facebook HERE
This will be an exciting year for our 5th and 6th graders as they will both be transitioning to Ken Caryl next year. We will have lots of information and a Ken Caryl Open House coming soon. For more information about the 6th grade transition, click HERE
