For this week's Locally Leesburg, we're throwing it back to last year's interview with Pawsitivity Pet Services in honor of Wednesday's National Dog Day. The local small business prides itself on its small service area. Each staff member is first aid and CPR certified, and the team provides the highest quality care for your pets.

Today, Town staff gathered to celebrate Senior Network Administrator Matthew Russell on his retirement after an incredible 26 years of service.

Matthew joined the Town in 2000 as a Systems Technician and was promoted to Network Administrator II in 2001. Throughout his career, his knowledge, dedication, and willingness to help have made a lasting impact on our organization and the people he worked alongside.

Matthew, thank you for 26 years of service, friendship, and commitment to the Town. Your contributions will not be forgotten, and you will certainly be missed!

Wishing you all the best in this next chapter. May the Force be with you, always!

This week’s Throwback Thursday post is a back-to-school mystery!

Thomas Balch Library recently received a clock from the former Leesburg High School, covered in signatures added sometime before the school closed in 1954. According to the donor, the clock was signed by teachers when the school officially closed, though a few dates from the 1930s and 1940s suggest some signatures may have been added over a longer period. Could students have signed it too?

Leesburg High’s roots stretch back to 1779 with the Leesburg Academy, later becoming one of Loudoun County’s first four‑year accredited high schools in 1909. As enrollment grew, a new building opened in 1926 and was expanded again in 1941. The school served the community until 1954, when Loudoun County High School opened. Today the building is the Leesburg Senior Center.

Can you help us solve this puzzle? If you know why this clock was signed, we’d love to hear from you!
