Message from Sandra Soto, Community Liaison
Welcome to the 2022-2023 school year! As the bilingual Community Liaison at Leigh High School, I am looking forward to getting to know our wonderful families. I am also a Leigh alum and am very excited to be back in a community I love! You can read more about me in my Leigh Bio.
My role is to support our Leigh families. Throughout the year, I will share useful resources, provide parent workshops, help families understand our school system, and help parents support their child’s education. I very much look forward to working with our Leigh students, parents, faculty and Community Resources. Together we can help our students have a successful school year.
Please contact me if you have questions. I am here to assist you.

How does the Community Liaison support the Leigh community?
The Leigh bilingual Community Liaison supports students, parents, staff, and community groups in a variety of ways including
Show your student that school matters, and that you are invested in their success by being involved in school activities! Also, demonstrate to your student that success in school is the pathway to college, a career and a productive life!
- Assisting in Leigh’s ELAC (English Learner Advisory Committee) meetings and promoting the participation of parents of our diverse population.
- Assisting in “Noche Latina” meetings, a Spanish Speaking Parent Participation Program at Leigh dedicated to providing the tools parents need to actively participate and help their students to strive during high school and beyond.
- Helping connect families with appropriate resources at school and in the community.
- Assisting with registration/data confirmation at the start of the school year.
- Aiding communication between the school, teachers, and parents.
- Translating transcripts, emails, announcements, meetings with teachers and office administration.
As a parent, if you have any questions or concerns about your student’s academic performance, attendance, ways to help at home, etc. feel free to contact Sandra Soto by phone, email or stop by. It will be a pleasure to meet and help you!
