If you missed the Information Night we had in December, you can find the presentation here: Parent Information Night
As of now we will not be holding any school tours this year. If you would like to schedule a Zoom Meeting with the principal, please contact our secretary Margartia Russell to set up a date and time. Margarita.Russell@jeffco.k12.co.us
FULL DAY: Leawood will have limited space in our Full Day Preschool so be sure to apply early.
Jefferson County School Age Enrichment (SAE) strives to provide a true enrichment program. We plan intentionally for active and play based learning experiences to support the success of all children. Children may select from a variety of recreational and enrichment opportunities that will support their physical, cognitive, emotional and social development. For more information, visit our website.
The first step to this process is EnrollJeffco. All returning students will use EnrollJeffco for the upcoming school year to indicate where they will be attending school in August.
The second step to this process is Jeffco Connect. In July/August, you will still need to register your student(s) through Jeffco Connect, making sure your contact information is updated, pay fees, and sign off on agreements (Code of Conduct, Media Releases, and other OPT out agreements with your digital signature).
Please remember that if your student is currently “choice enrolled” at Leawood Elementary, they will be assigned to the middle school based on your residency, which will not be Ken Caryl. If your student is planning on attending Ken Caryl Middle School next year, you will need to choice enroll them through EnrollJeffco. Please follow the process mentioned above.
We would like to thank all of our staff, students, families and community members who contributed to our Leawood Virtual Giving Tree. We appreciate your kindness and know that you brightened the lives of many families over the holiday. We truly couldn’t do this without all of your support. Also, a big “Hooray” to our Leawood Counselor, Mrs. Magri, for organizing and coordinating this project.
Did you know that our preschool families are also welcome to complete a Free & Reduced application? Although it will not cover your tuition fees, if approved, this will provide your student with breakfast or lunch at no cost. Breakfast and lunch is available for all our preschool families. Start application
Please don't forget to go login to Jeffco Connect and verify that all of your student's fees have been paid. While you are in Jeffco Connect, please verify your personal information and make sure we have updated phone numbers and email addresses. In addition, please be sure to add additional emergency contacts other than just parents listed just in case we are unable to reach a guardian. If you need assistance with fees, feel free to contact Mrs. Russell at 303-982-7860 ext. #5
