📣 Leeds School Town Clean-Up Day Tomorrow! 🧹🌎
Tomorrow afternoon, Leeds School elementary and high school students will be paired together to walk around town picking up litter and garbage as part of our annual Town Clean-Up Day. This is a great opportunity for our students to give back and help keep our community looking its best!
Please make sure students come prepared with:
• Boots and/or old shoes
• Jacket or sweatshirt
• Pants
• Work gloves (if they have them)
The weather is expected to be warmer, but windy, so dressing appropriately is important.
Students will enjoy ice cream treats upon completion! 🍦
🚸 Leeds community members, please be on the lookout for our students between 2:00–3:00 PM and use extra caution while driving around town for their safety.
Thank you for supporting our students and helping us take pride in our community!

As part of our school’s continuous improvement process, we value feedback from our parents and families. Information gathered from the parent survey helps guide planning, identify strengths, and determine areas where we can continue to improve our programs and school environment. We encourage all parents to please take a few moments to complete the survey. The survey link was included in your email, and it is also available on the school webpage.
