Leander High School

An IB World School | Home of the Lions

Should Leander ISD prominently place the state accountability system in its district improvement plan? The Board of Trustees discussed its goals, approved a new evaluation tool for bus service to students living within two miles of their school, and took action on construction projects tied to the 2017 bond referendum.

As part of the 7th and 8th grade Science Middle School and 9th grade High School Health curricula, students will learn about the human reproductive system, abstinence, and human sexuality. This material will be taught for 3 day windows at every LISD MS and HS campus by Austin LifeGuard from Oct. 21-May 26.

Leander ISD picked an experienced school finance expert Elaine Cogburn for its top business role, leading the budget, finance, payroll, and purchasing teams. Trustees approved the hiring of Cogburn as the new chief financial officer during the Oct. 3 Board of Trustees meeting. She will be joining Leander ISD starting Nov. 4, replacing former CFO Lucas Janda, who joined a privately owned financial firm in July 2019.
