A Note from our Oro Valley Principal
Dear families,
So much is happening so quickly! The last of the interior concrete has been poured, the HVAC duct work and units are being installed, dry wall on interior walls, electricity wired, stairs to second floor installed and the fun part – gave the approval for all of the indoor colors on tile, carpeting and paint! The report from Canyon Building and Design is that the construction is still ON TIME, looking at occupancy the last week of July!
!!!HELP!!! SPREAD THE WORD!!!

STAFF UPDATE (same as last newsletter)
We have been busy interviewing many candidates for our staff positions. The high caliber of the applicants has made this a smooth and easy process for us. People want to work at Leman! We have six masterful teachers transferring from our Leman Marana school and additionally, have nineteen newly hired high quality teachers. Also transferring from our Leman Marana school are six skilled support staff members. Lastly, I’m very excited to write that we have a highly qualified Vice Principal joining our team to help guide us on this incredible journey. I wish I could tell you about each one of them but we are respecting their current contracts they are working under and will share more with you as their current employment comes to an end. However, I am happy to introduce to you the six teachers and preschool director who are moving over with us.
