  Lees Corner Families,
We're incredibly excited to kick off the new school year! This summer has been a whirlwind of activity, with extensive renovations transforming our campus. You'll see some fantastic new additions, including a brand-new gym, a temporary office and clinic, and a temporary main entrance by the cafeteria. For those in the modular units, we've installed a new bathroom trailer, and outside, you'll find a new ramp and walkway leading to the modulars and our upcoming new basketball court and playground. They’ve also started to frame our new parking lot/kiss and ride lane, and the first set of new classrooms! We can't wait for you to experience all the improvements!
Given these extensive renovations, the Lees Corner Main Office remains closed to in-person visitors/access until Friday, August 1st. We will still remain accessible during Summer Office Hours from 9am to 1pm for appointments, etc.
Sincerely,
Ms. Sloan and Ms. Hutchinson
