Lehigh Elementary School

Title I School

We are OVER THE TOP to announce our recent Urban Partnership with the Ding Darling Wildlife Refuge & the Ding Darling Wildlife Society. Our friends at Ding have supported LES throughout the years in so many ways, but we have decided to take our partnership to the next level. We can't wait to show our students and families all the projects we have planned. Thank you DDWR & DDWS, your continued support means the world to us!

A welcome back note from Principal Stafford

It is with great excitement and pride that I welcome you to the 2025–2026 school year at Lehigh Elementary School! As your new principal, I am honored to continue working with our incredible school community with such dedicated staff, supportive families, and amazing students.

At Lehigh Elementary, we believe in empowering every child to reach their highest potential—academically, socially, emotionally, and behaviorally. Our mission, “Through teamwork, innovation, and the power of yet, Lehigh Elementary will provide a passionate pursuit of student excellence,” will continue to guide everything we do.

This year, we will focus on high expectations, strong relationships, and consistent routines. Whether your child is returning or joining us for the first time, please know that we are committed to creating a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where every student can thrive. Our talented teachers and staff are ready to inspire a love of learning and help every child grow.

Our summer office hours will return to 8:00 AM–4:00 PM beginning Thursday, July 18th. We encourage you to reach out if you have any questions or need assistance as we prepare for a great start to the school year.

I encourage you to stay connected through our website, newsletters, and school events. When schools and families work together, students succeed. I look forward to working together to make this a truly exceptional year.

Here’s to a wonderful school year filled with growth, laughter, and learning!
