Leeds City Schools’ superintendent John J. Moore addressed the issue of a line of mobile classrooms located outside of Leeds Elementary.

Preparing for construction on a new Pre-kindergarten to second grade school, the current elementary school has been experiencing growing pains.

Once construction begins it is projected to be a 12 to 14 month process.

“The city is working together with us. It’s a great feeling,” said Moore. “The plan has legs and we’re moving.”

Dickie Drake, member of the Alabama House of Representatives serving District 45 (Leeds and St. Clair County) presented former Miss Leeds Area 2013 Chandler Champion and Miss Leeds Outstanding Teen 2013 Brooklyn Holt with proclamations for their outstanding service to not only the Leeds area but also the great state of Alabama.
