LEAD Academy High School

Our LEAD Academy students recently visited Tyler Junior College as part of our ongoing effort to increase college awareness, access, and postsecondary planning. 🎓

When students can step onto a college campus, see themselves there, and experience it up close, college starts to feel real. And when they can see it, they can start to believe it is for them.

These moments help turn possibilities into plans and big dreams into real goals.

We know your time is valuable, so we’ll keep this simple. 💚💬 We’d love your feedback as we continue working to improve our schools. Take a few minutes to complete our survey, your input will help guide future decisions. Your responses are anonymous, and we’ll share what we learn.
