Our History

For over 30 years, Leeds Episcopal Activity Preschool (LEAP) has provided a nurturing and engaging environment for children aged 3-5. As an education ministry of Leeds Church, we are committed to providing quality education that equips our students for success in school, regardless of their background. Our experienced staff fosters a love of creativity, nature, and the larger world around us through daily art, music, and outdoor play.

Since 1971, the people of Leeds have supported early childhood education in our local community. Our program has evolved over the years, but our commitment to providing a safe and supportive environment for children to learn and grow remains unchanged. We are proud to have enrolled multiple generations of families and welcome you to join our community.

    "LEAP prepared my children for school by teaching them routines, manners, and social skills, and instilling a love of learning. As a school counselor, I noticed that children who attended LEAP were always academically and socially ready for kindergarten.“

  • Nancy Hutzell

    "LEAP develops Kindergarten readiness skills through intentional play, social communication, and creative activities. The teachers prompt higher-order thinking and encourage a connection between school and home experiences, preparing students for success in kindergarten and beyond.

    "My son Micah had a great experience at LEAP, with caring teachers and fun activities that prepared him for kindergarten academically and socially. He’s now thriving in the 4th grade!”

  • LEAP Parent

    LEAP was a game-changer for my son Nathan, who struggled with verbal instructions and following directions. The teachers helped him thrive, teaching him social skills, direction-following, and group participation. All three of my children attended LEAP and flourished!”
