Quick Facts
LEAD Academy High School is a free, open-enrolled college preparatory high school with an emphasis on preparing our students with the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed in college and in life.

Our LEAD Ethos is central to everything we do.
“We are LEADers because we are committed, courageous, disciplined, self-reliant and because we serve others.”

Tony Majors, Principal
“If you had told me ten years ago I would be in a doctoral program, I would’ve said you’re crazy! After completing my PhD, I plan to attend optometry school. I hope to one day develop a prosthetic eye, have my own lab and do my own research. I can only believe LEAD made the difference.”
