Namesake

Jim Plain Elementary school is named after long-time Leander ISD Deputy Superintendent Jim Plain, who played a critical role in developing the district's school construction program and its emphasis on the "partnership" between architects, engineers, contractors and the school district that has made LISD's construction process effective and efficient. 

Jim was the very personification of the term "Integrity," and a man of great vision. His dedication to the students of Leander ISD lives on in a string of Leander ISD schools constructed on time and on or under budget.
