#WatertownWay LEAP students participated in Global School Play Day yesterday morning. The goal of Global School Play Day is to bring awareness to the decline of play in our culture and to educate on the benefits and necessity of it. We spent the first 20-60 minutes of school enjoying unstructured play. The only rules are no screens/technology and teachers can't interfere unless there is a safety issue. It was very fun to watch what the kids came up with during this fun play time!
Just a quick reminder that there is a PTO Meeting tonight at 5:30. It will be in the LEAP Art Room and online via zoom. We hope to see you there!

Look at the Holiday Spirit at LEAP! Today's dress up day is Sweater Weather and the kids did not disappoint! Happy Holidays from LEAP Elementary!
Here's a look back at a special memory our LEAP students have from the beginning of November!
Jack, a student's pet ball python, came to visit each classroom. Students were able to ask questions and learn all there is to know about ball pythons. Many of our #WatertownWay students were excited to pet Jack, too! 🐍
There's been a lot of excitement in Mr. Stocks's room at LEAP as the 4th and 5th graders have been working very hard on a variety of science projects.
Students were able to pick the subject of their science projects, which added to the fun. Some of the subjects chosen were paleontology, astrology, volcanoes, and archeology!
Excellent job, 4th and 5th graders! 👏 #WatertownWay
🎁🎄 December 17th was LEAP's annual Holiday Store where each of the kids shopped for gifts for their families. It is always a special day that the students look forward to!
We are so appreciative of our LEAP PTO for putting on this special event year after year! ❤
