Middle Schools in LEAD Academy

LEAD Academy operates a single middle school, LEAD Academy Building B, serving grades 4-7 in Montgomery, Alabama. This public charter school faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low test scores well below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

LEAD Academy Building B has a predominantly African American student population (91.41%) and a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (80.67% receive free or reduced-price lunch). These demographic factors may be contributing to the school's struggles, as it is ranked 351 out of 442 Alabama middle schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's high student-teacher ratio of 27.1 to 1 may also impact the level of individual attention and support available to students.

Overall, LEAD Academy faces significant challenges in improving academic outcomes at its sole middle school. Targeted interventions and support, as well as a deeper understanding of the school's unique challenges, would be necessary to address these issues and help the school improve its performance.
