In Student Support we believe:
iLEAD embraces a paradigm for education that believes in the success of ALL learners. Through collaborative and innovative experiences, learners will discover and embrace the idea that differences contribute to our common humanity. We create opportunities for all learners to develop empathy, and become thoughtful and caring community members in all areas of life.
We look forward to supporting all of you and having a great year. Please let us know how we can be of service to you.
Together We’re Better!
