Today, our 5th grade LEEdership Council members, along with their sponsor, Ms. Jennings, represented Lee at the TEPSA Student Leadership Workshop. We are so proud of them for spending the day learning, growing, and building their skills as student leaders. The day was even more special as they accepted a Student Leadership Award recognizing the outstanding work of last year’s LEEdership Council! 🏆✨
