Leechburg Area School District
- Leechburg Area School District
The Leechburg Area School District is a public school district serving K-12 students from Leechburg Borough and Gilpin Township in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, and West Leechburg Borough in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.
The school district consists of David Leech Elementary School, located on Siberian Avenue in Leechburg, and Leechburg Area Middle/High School, located on First Street in Leechburg.
The high school building was originally built in 1922, and the elementary building in 1955. Both school facilities underwent a major renovation in the mid-1990s. This work combined the separate elementary and high school buildings into one building. The Baker building was also connected by using a sky walk. Afterward, it was possible to reach any part of the 3 buildings without traveling outside, increasing security and keeping students from having to cross a public road to get into the Baker Building. The renovation also included new doors that were not able to be opened from the outside during school hours. The renovation of the facilities cost approximately $12 million.
The school district is governed by a nine-member board of directors, elected at-large.
