Easy Ways to Support Leawood

You Can Still Support Leawood by participating in the following programs . We are still collecting Box Tops and Milk Caps for Mooola. We have a collection bin in the front entryway of the school. We are also participating in the American Furniture Warehouse and Burgers for Better Schools Programs. 

Are you a parent, grandparent, guardian, aunt/uncle or community member that is good with numbers, likes to find deals, enjoys get togethers, or is a natural leader?  Then PTSA is the place for you!  We are always looking for general membership AND it's the time of year that we need to recruit new committee chairs and board members (elections are in April).  If you are interested or would like to learn more - please reach out to Ryan Boogert (ryan.boogert@jeffco.k12.co.us) or Laura Burnham (laura.burnham@jeffco.k12.co.us).

Wall of Pride 

The Wall of Pride is Leawood’s way of acknowledging our responsible students. These good citizens are chosen by their teachers for demonstrating Respect, Responsibility and Safety. Students can be recognized for any of these traits during any month of the year, with the expectation that each student is recognized at least one time. These students will have their picture taken and will eat lunch with Mrs. Shehan during the monthly Wall of Pride lunch. The February Wall of Pride Students were:
