My grandsons go to Leaders Heights and I am very happy with the school and the teachers. Both my grandsons one in the first grade and the other in the fourth, had Mrs Kirkwood in the first grade and received a great start, she is a wonderful teacher and has the experience and patience to be a good teacher. The parent and grandparent involvement at this small school makes it a success of all the programs, especially the Science and Art Show, the May Day celebration and all the class trips. Mr. Patterson , Mrs Winemiller, Mrs. Hullman, Mrs Mc Guigan, and Sue Lindt have all helped in the molding great kids. Thank You
