Leopard Trail

Show your Leopard Spirit by sponsoring a personalized paw print that will be painted on the roads around each of the Lorena Campuses. All sponsorships will benefit Project Graduation.

The paw prints will be about 4 foot by 4 foot near your preferred campus. The paw prints will be painted before the 2016-2017 school year and will persist for the entire school year.

We have a limited quantity, and they will be sold on a first come first serve basis. Get yours today by returning the order form to any campus office.
