About Us

The mission of our school is "Working Together = Learning For All".  We truly live in a culture here at Lee where teachers, parents, students, and community members work in cooperation with each other, and create an environment that allows us to have the best educational environment we can produce.

It is our philosophy that before we teach Math, Reading, Science and Social Studies, we teach Children.  This approach demonstrates that we believe in establishing positive relationships with our students so as to build an environment of trust, in a caring and nurturing atmosphere.  We believe it is vital to establish this climate in order for students to reach their academic potential, as well as build their self confidence
