Look who showed up for the Kindergarten Open House last week...our 2 favorite Longhorns!! They got the kids all pumped up for kindergarten next year.

Two of our Lee Longhorns were recognized as the Optimist Youth of the Month this month. Congratulations to Callen and Ethan, we are so proud of you. You can read what they were nominated for under their picture. PROGRAM: Sharon Fincham recognized our guests from Lee Elementary. Beginning with the students being recognized today, then their support systems – parents, siblings, grandparents and friends and lastly the teachers, principals and any additional administration supporting these students. Thank you all for what you do, making these students successful.
