Principal Jenny Blair brings over 13 years of educational leadership and 25 years in education with a passion for student success, driving excellence and innovation throughout our school.
Dear Students, Parents, Staff, and Community Members,
Welcome to Killearn Lakes Elementary!
I am excited and honored to be part of the Killearn Lakes Elementary community as I begin my fourth year as principal. It has been a privilege to serve our students, families, and staff, and I continue to be inspired by the strong sense of community and commitment to excellence that makes KLES such a special place.
At Killearn Lakes Elementary, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, valued, challenged, and inspired each day. Our dedicated teachers and staff work hard to create engaging learning experiences while building meaningful relationships with our students and families. We know that when schools and families work together, children thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
Communication and partnership are essential to a successful school year. We encourage families to stay connected through our school website, newsletters, social media, and parent events. Your involvement makes a tremendous difference, and we look forward to working alongside you to support your child's education.
Thank you for entrusting us with your child's education. We are honored to serve your family and look forward to an outstanding school year!
With appreciation,
Jenny Blair

Safety is our top priority. We have secure campus entry points, regular emergency drills, and on-site staff trained in emergency response. Our visitor management system ensures that all guests are signed in and monitored. We also use PikMyKid which allows us to keep the students inside the classroom during dismissal. The parent uses an app to “announce” and the teacher will send the student to parent pickup.

All volunteers must complete the Leon County Volunteer Application each year.
To chaperone a field trip, you need a chaperone badge, which requires a background check and fingerprinting. Start by picking up a packet from our front office, then take it to the district office for processing. The process can take six weeks, so apply early if you might chaperone this year. The chaperone badge is valid for five years.
