Leechburg Area School District to experience closures for construction

The Leechburg Area School District will have a couple closures this summer because of construction projects.

Superintendent Tiffany Nix sent out a letter Friday morning informing families the school district’s playground will be closed starting Monday until the David Leech Elementary School’s roof is completed.

The playground will be closed for three weeks to avoid sharing the space with construction equipment and materials.

The school’s central office will be closed July 18 through 29 because of a change over in the heating, ventilation and air conditioning equipment. Nix said during that time it would be unsafe for central office employees and visitors.

She encourages people to send an email if there is anything they need. These are the contacts listed on the school district website: Nix, at tnix@leechburg.k12.pa.us; Jaime Spiering, at jspiering@leechburg.k12.pa.us; Teresa Edinger, at tedinger@leechburg.k12.pa.us; or Bethann Moore, at bmoore@leechburg.k12.pa.us.
