Our Mission

The Leapwood School community will provide the opportunity for our scholars to appreciate cultural diversity and become active learners in a safe and positive environment. We will also provide a rigorous curriculum that will not only be aligned with the California State Standards, but will also be challenging and enriching enough so that our students will be able to succeed throughout their school years and practice Social & Emotional Wellness. We will encourage our scholars to become productive, independent, and responsible citizens of society.
