Dear Future Stars Families and Friends,
As we look back on the school year so far, we are filled with gratitude for the incredible support and dedication shown by every member of our school community. To our parents, guardians, teachers, staff, and volunteers—thank you for the time, care, and effort you’ve given to help our students succeed.
A special thank you goes to our Leeds Booster Club for your steadfast support. Your ongoing commitment plays a vital role in creating a safe, positive, and thriving school environment. The contributions you make truly enhance the experience for our entire school family.
This year has been one of tremendous growth and learning for our students, made possible by the passion, skill, and dedication of our Leeds Elementary staff. We deeply appreciate this outstanding team of educators. Their commitment to our students and their families continues to inspire us all, and we are proud to be part of the Leeds Family.
As we move forward together, let’s continue to embrace the spirit of teamwork, kindness, and excellence that defines our community. With your continued support, we can ensure that every student has the opportunity to grow, learn, and shine.
Warm regards,
Mr. Koch
Principal, Leeds Elementary School

Hello Future Stars Families!
It’s hard to believe that it is already May! Time flies when you are having fun, and we certainly do have a lot of fun at Leeds! Our last month has been super busy with testing and working on our classroom skills. We have been unable to do a guidance lesson, but I have hope we will see each other one more time this spring!
Other topics we learned about this year include, brain science, coping skills, conflict resolution or tattling, and I plan to finish off the year with reflections and creating SMART goals.
I hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable summer. As always, thank you for sharing your kids with us! We have so much fun here at Leeds!
Mrs. Roskilly
