Elementary Principal
Welcome to the Principal’s Corner
Thank you for visiting the David Leech Elementary Principal’s Corner. My name is Frank Komar. As the Elementary Principal, I am excited and honored to serve the students, families, and Leechburg Staff. We will continue to focus on our student’s academic, social, emotional, and physical needs and overall well-being.
Teachers' instruction is guided using the PA Core Standards. The school utilizes several different resources. These include the Into Reading series (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt) for English Language Arts, Reveal Math (McGraw Hill), and Studies Weekly for Science and Social Studies. Classroom teachers and Reading Specialists utilize the Enhanced Core Reading Instruction (ECRI) to provide Tier 1 and Tier 2 reading intervention for grades K-2. The building utilizes a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) to provide Tier 3 interventions for students regarding academics, behavior, and/or attendance. David Leech Elementary also utilizes a School-Wide Positive Behavioral Intervention and Support (PBIS). Through this students can earn rewards by displaying behaviors that align with being safe, kind, and responsible. All students at the Elementary participate in special classes on a five-day rotation. These classes include Music, Physical Education, Art, Library, and Computer Classes to create well-rounded students.
I am a firm believer in working collectively with staff, students, families, and other stakeholders of the Leechburg Area School District to move forward in a positive direction.
Yours in education,
Mr. Frank Komar
