In honor of World Kindness Day, LEAP Elementary Student Council recognized the every day kindnesses of one of our own - Mrs. McCormack! Mrs. McCormack goes above and beyond each day making the lunchroom a fun place to be. She decorates the gym/lunchroom for the seasons and holidays - always having a craft for each class to create. At LEAP, the lunchroom is a place for learning too! Mrs. McCormack educates our students on the importance of recycling and makes sure they know the what is garbage and what is recyclable. So many of her kindnesses are completed without anyone knowing what she does. She is generous with her time and talents and we are so thankful she shares them with our staff and school! Thanks, Mrs. McCormack - we hit the jackpot with you!

Honoring our veterans - today and always.
Each Wednesday, #WatertownWay Speech Language Pathologist Mrs. Tammy Welter helps Mrs. Peters’ 4K Webster Wildcat students make a special snack!
