We have some great news to announce. Lead has officially purchased the land next door to our current building. This land will be the future home of a new gym with other details to come. We don’t have a timeline on this project yet but have begun the planning phases. Big things to come. We hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving.

We hope everyone enjoys the next few days off from the pace of school! Here's a look back to our second graders and their fossil exploration a couple of weeks ago. We're thankful they were able to be in the building learning and exploring.

The latest DHEC report shows Greenville County numbers continue to climb into the high with significant increase range. In accordance with our Lead Academy reopening plan, starting on Monday November 2, 2020 we will phase to plan 0 which is fully virtual for students in grades 5-8. Students in grades K-4 will remain on the current plan. We want to thank students, staff, families and caregivers who will need to exercise a great deal of flexibility. We regret the hardships this will cause for some of our families. This is uncharted territory that we all are navigating together and we understand this action causes disruption. Great care and research went into this decision; however, we are making this decision not because we think we will stop a pandemic. We are simply trying to do our part in what we believe is the right step to take for the health and safety of our families, employees, and the community at large, especially to protect our students and employees who are at greater risk. We will continue monitoring the situation weekly and proceed on a week-by-week basis.

Queremos agradecer a los estudiantes, el personal, las familias y los cuidadores que necesitarán ejercitar una gran flexibilidad. Lamentamos las dificultades que esto causará a algunas de nuestras familias. Este es un territorio inexplorado por el que todos estamos navegando juntos y entendemos que esta acción causa momentos difíciles. Se tomó gran cuidado e investigación en esta decisión; sin embargo, no tomamos esta decisión porque pensamos que detendremos una pandemia.

Continuaremos monitoreando la situación semanalmente y procederemos semana a semana.

Dear Lead Families, I want to personally thank you for your support during these challenging times. Your patience and understanding has really been a breath of fresh air coming in as the new principal. I’ve never seen this kind of support in my time as an administrator and Lead Academy is truly something special. I want you to know that Lead Academy values the safety of our faculty, staff, students, and families. We believe that most students learn best in the building and we place high value on teaching your children in creating safe in-person instruction for all grades. The latest Greenville County spread rate numbers are a cause for concern in accordance with our Lead Academy reopening plan. The numbers shared in the last report are categorized as high with significant increase. This week, Lead will remain on the current attendance plan for all grades. Should the county level data provided by DHEC remain at the current level or increase, we will begin phasing grades 5-8 to virtual instruction starting 11/2. A decision will be announced the morning of 10/30. If the county level data provided by DHEC remains at current levels or increases for a second week (data released on 11/5), we will continue phasing out remaining grades until levels fall significantly. Updates will be made weekly following the release of county level data provided by DHEC on Thursdays. You can find our reopening plan here https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/927020/9-22_Modified_Reopening_Plan_and_Timeline___1_.pdf For this week, we have enhanced our safety protocols to add an extra layer of precaution. We hope the county spread rate will decrease significantly and allow us to keep everyone in the building. As always, if questions arise, feel free to contact me at cubaker@myleadacademy.com Once again, thank you for your continued support.

Estimadas familias de Lead, Quiero agradecerles personalmente por su apoyo durante estos tiempos difíciles. Su paciencia y comprensión ha sido realmente un aire fresco entrando como nuevo director. Nunca había visto este tipo de apoyo en mi tiempo como administrador y Lead Academy es realmente un lugar especial. Quiero que sepan qué Lead Academy valora la seguridad de nuestra facultad, personal, estudiantes y familias. Creemos que la mayoría de los estudiantes aprenden mejor en el edificio y valoramos mucho la enseñanza de sus hijos para crear una instrucción segura en persona para todos los grados. Los últimos números de covid del condado de Greenville son motivo de preocupación de acuerdo con nuestro plan de reapertura de Lead Academy. Los números compartidos en el último informe se clasifican como altos con un aumento significativo. Esta semana, Lead permanecerá en el plan de asistencia actual para todos los grados. En caso de que los datos a nivel de condado proporcionados por DHEC permanezcan en el nivel actual o aumenten, comenzaremos a pasar los grados 5-8 a la instrucción virtual a partir del 2 de noviembre. La decisión se dará a conocer la mañana del 30 de octubre. Si los datos a nivel de condado proporcionados por DHEC permanecen en los niveles actuales o aumentan durante una segunda semana (datos publicados el 5 de noviembre), continuaremos eliminando gradualmente los grados restantes hasta que los niveles bajen significativamente. Las actualizaciones se realizarán semanalmente después de la publicación de los datos a nivel de condado proporcionados por DHEC los jueves. Pueden encontrar nuestro plan de reapertura aquí https://core-docs.s3.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/927020/9-22_Modified_Reopening_Plan_and_Timeline___1_.pdf Para esta semana, hemos mejorado nuestros protocolos de seguridad para agregar una capa adicional de precaución. Esperamos que los números de covid del condado disminuya significativamente y nos permita mantener a todos en el edificio. Como siempre, si surgen preguntas, no dude en contactarme en cubaker@myleadacademy.com Una vez más, gracias por su continuo apoyo.
