| Welcome to St. Leander School- Mrs. Williams/ Grade 5 |
Dear Parents,
I am so proud of the great job my students did on the Mock Trials. They worked very hard. Please check with your child to see if they can use more school supplies and nose tissues.
Thank you parents, for your continued support.
May God Bless,
Mrs. Williams
