Lancaster Elementary School

Leo, the leopard alert!!! ‼️🐆💚💚 These two amazing kids were trying to help one of their friends, with special needs, eat lunch today in the cafeteria. They were spending most of their time being a good friend. We are so proud of Adalyn Pinkston and Justice Gamble.

LEO THE LEOPARD SPOTTING:

Azariah Jones was caught being AMAZING!!! She was picking up everyone’s trash off the lunch table without being asked . We are so happy to have kids like her here at LES!

Our LES kiddos have had an Amazing start to the 25-26 school year. Our Leopards are resilient, they push through hard times, we cry together, laugh together, learn about each other together. There's something special about this place. We're so thankful for each and every one of you. Just a few pictures to reminisce on the week!

We welcomed Mrs.Barbara Moore back into the building to substitute. Happy 65th first day of school to you Mrs Moore! We are so glad you continue to come back year after year 💚🐆💚 #Leopard4life #Watchus #WeAreFamily

Jayce met all the expectations this week and made safe choices. We’re proud to announce our very first Leo the Leopard of the 25-26 school year, Jayce Pasqual!!!

Leo, the leopard, stopped by to check out the school and we put him to work.

🌟 Help Us Make a Difference at Lancaster Elementary! 🌟 Hey, Lancaster family! ❤️ As you know, recent storms have hurt many families in Kentucky, especially in Laurel and Pulaski Counties. Even though it's not here in our own town, we believe in helping our fellow Kentuckians in their time of need! We’re excited to introduce the Pocket Change Bucket Challenge!💰 Here's how you can help: 👉 Donate Your Spare Change! Starting now until the end of the school year, we’ll have donation buckets located in common areas of the school. Every penny counts, so bring in your loose change—every little bit helps! The goal is to show our kids the power of community and compassion by helping those affected by the tornadoes. We’re partnering with the United Way of Laurel County to make sure that all funds go directly to help families in need. Let’s come together, Lancaster Leopard Families! 🏫💪 When our bucket is full, we’ll give a call, and a Trooper will collect the donations. Thank you for your support and kindness! Together, we can bring hope to those who need it most. 🌈 *Since we only have 2 days of school left, we will have the bucket in the office through Wednesday of next week as well. #PocketChangeChallenge #LancasterElementary #KentuckyStrong
