"I love Leadership school, it was the most satisfying experience for my daughter, the attention by the teacher and the whole staff made it a safe and caring enviorment. she exceled in all her classes due to the care and involment of the teachers, they would let me know if she needed attention to any of her classes, no time to fool around, the staff is always ready to help and keep the kids safe, this way, they can concentrate in their curriculum and be prepared for what is outside waiting for them to make a very successful future. thanks to all the staff at the school, I am glad we had the sense to changed school where I knew she was going to be okay and do well."

"Being a small school, Leadership really has been able to positively impact these students. The students really get the attention they need to succeed, the faculty is able to personalize each student s education plan and we are given the opportunity to build a really strong community. I truly appreciate the lessons of the School Wide Outcomes (SWOs) because it exposes the students to skills that are essential for success. Though very different in every way, my kids are taught the responsibility and critical thinking skills necessary for whatever path they choose after high school. I already have one LHS graduate and I am confident is saying that he was more focused and prepared for college than some of his peers that attended private high schools. This is a result of the personalization, SWO s, and community support that LHS is able to offer. See for yourself: www.leadershiphigh.org"

"LHS provides all students with a program that meets UC and CSU requirements by the time they graduate. LHS turns out conscientious students who care about their community, who are critical thinkers, and who are extremely comfortable speaking in front of groups. My daughter from class of 07' is now a SFSU fresmen, who is doing well because of the preparation she received at LHS. My son is a senior at LHS now, and both I and my husband are very happy with the education they received at LHS."

"It is true that Leadership has an atypical curriculum. I do not feel that the math or English classes were weak in comparision with other high school classes. I would like to address the leadership classes that the other poster felt was useless. My stepdaughter is infinitely more comfortable speaking in front of groups than I have seen from most other teenagers. This is a direct result of the leadership classes and is no small skill."

"As with any school, parents involvement, relevant curriculm, teacher/student ratio, as well as students willing to learn are key to ultimate success: creating good citizens for this planet! And Leadership H.S.makes a difference in our city, no doubt about it! Access to extracurricular activities is also a plus. But, we need to stop moving around! Having our own building will help ease the stress for all concerned. My 2 cents: Parent involvement should be a requirement even if the the school is public!"
