Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year! We are looking forward to another eventful and productive year for students, staff, and parents.
Leesburg Elementary School is one of seven elementary schools in the district known as Warsaw Community Schools. With more than 550 students, it is the one of the largest schools.
The school's policies and procedures have been developed to promote a positive environment for learning. If you have any questions regarding any of our policies, please contact the school office.
Our dedicated staff is committed to providing the best possible education to our students. However, success in school depends on the cooperation of staff, parents, and students. With this in mind, we ask for your assistance and support, and we invite your suggestions and ideas. If for some reason you feel something is interfering with your child's progress, please arrange a conference with the teacher.
One thing you can do to help your child be successful at school is to find the time to read to him or her. The time you spend with your child(ren) is one of the greatest gifts you can give.
Let's work together to make Leesburg Elementary the best it can be!
Sincerely,
Mr. Dahms
Principal
