PARENT TEACHER ORGANIZATION ELECTS 2024-25 OFFICERS
Earlier this week, members of Leland’s Parent Teacher Organization elected officers for the 2024-25 school year. Effective following an early-June transition meeting and serving a one-year term, the four parent volunteers who will lead this group next year are Emily Miezio, President; Emily LaDrig, Vice President; Dan Worth, Treasurer; and Linnea Keen, Recording Secretary. The duties of the Corresponding Secretary will be shared among all four. “I could not be more pleased with the four folks we are electing,” outgoing Secretary Stacey Brugeman said during Monday night’s meeting. “They are outstanding individuals and we are in very good hands.” Want to volunteer in and around the school next year?

LPS Parents and Community: In a partnership between the Finland Exchange Group and the Archangel Ancient Tree Archive, you have the opportunity to plant your own clone sapling of the TC Champion Black Willow Tree. These trees sequester carbon and filter water- two very important ecosystem services for our local ecosystem. Learn more by reading the care guide attached. To reserve your saplings (free of charge) please email from jzywicki@lelandschool.com with your name, phone number and number of saplings. Pick up will be Monday or Tuesday, details will be sent in your email. Let's make a difference together!
