Principal's Corner - Mrs. Racheal R. Leckrone

I grew up in Sorento, a small farm community located in Bond County. I currently live in Moro with my husband, Jarrod, and my two daughters, Alissa and Taylor. I graduated from SIUE with my bachelor's degree in elementary education in 2012, earned my master's degree in special education in 2015, completed my education specialist degree in administration and special education director endorsement in 2017, and I am currently working towards my Doctorate in Education Curriculum Design & Instruction. I started my career as a special education teacher in Staunton and have since been a special education teacher at both Trimpe Middle School and Civic Memorial High School. This is my fifth year serving as the principal and early childhood director at Bethalto East. In addition to getting to work with the most amazing students, families, and staff, my favorite thing about Bethalto East is that we are the first stop for many of our students on their educational journeys. We get to help instill a love for learning in a nurturing and safe environment, while also establishing genuine and collaborative relationships with our students' families. 

​With small town roots, the Bethalto School District has felt like home since the very beginning.
 Bethalto East staff are wonderful, loving, and dedicated individuals, who care about our students very much, and it is an honor to be the principal at such a fantastic school. Please stop by East to say hello or introduce yourself and do not hesitate to reach out. #LittleEagleNation
