Out of an abundance of caution and for the safety of our community, we are closing Léman campuses until April 20, 2020. There will be no access to either campus for Léman families. Online learning will begin on Tuesday, March 31. Families will receive additional information about online learning prior to the end of Spring Break. [Updated March 18, 2020]
