Vicki Roux
B.S. University of Maine
Year Started: 1987
Where I was born: Maine
What I love to do!: I love and spend lots of time being a Mom!!! I also enjoy travel and spending weekends and vacations in Maine with my extended family and close friends. We do lots of swimming, boating, biking, tennis, reading, cooking and taking longs walks by the lake and the ocean.
I became an educator in 1980, first working with children with special needs and then running summer camps throughout college. A few years after earning my degree in Child Development and Family Relations, I was thrilled to find an opportunity open at LEAP as a Creative Arts Teacher, joining the team in 1987 and later becoming the Lower School Program Director in 1991. My tenure as a Program Director has been characterized by the opportunity to develop strong, connected relationships with many families, children and teachers, while supporting the needs and strengths of all members of the “Three Seeds of LEAP.” My current position as the Lexington LEAP Director and Co-Executive Director is allowing me the opportunity to engage with families from all our LEAP Schools and is very rewarding. I continue to learn, grow and look for the possibilities in each and every day. I am proud to have been a part of LEAP school now for over 35 years and look forward to many more amazing years supporting the children and families with whom I work every day.
My free time is spent with my 2 amazing daughters, their partners, and my husband, creating a home life that reflects my hopes and dreams for my future and theirs, as well as staying active by spending vacations in Bowerbank, Maine. The laid back Maine pace suits my style perfectly and allows the creativity to flow! The opportunity to connect with my family and friends and re-energize beside Sebec Lake in the summer months is a true blessing. We do lots of swimming, boating, biking, reading, yoga, cooking and taking long walks by the lake. Family is everything and I am blessed to have wonderful friends and family members who support me wholeheartedly.
