Learn. Lead. Change the World.
Welcome to American Leadership Academy, where we combine academic excellence and character development to create an exceptional educational experience.
We don’t just teach our students to be smart—we R.A.I.S.E. them to be leaders. Learn about American Leadership Academy's R.A.I.S.E. and leadership values and how we instill these core concepts into our student's day-to-day lives.
We prepare our students for both college and career, knowing that experience and skills expand beyond the classroom. Learn about our nurturing curriculum, financial literacy classes, advanced placement courses, and more.
We know that students will have the best educational experience possible when exposed to activities and extracurriculars that develop leadership, teamwork, and other skills. Explore what classes, clubs, camps, and activities American Leadership Academy has to offer.
