Leading Edge Academy was founded in 1993 and has earned a reputation for academic excellence, maintaining a safe and supportive learning environment and having a faculty of outstanding teachers. Our cross-curricular, three-year middle school program links subjects together for a well-rounded and connected educational experience. Our teachers go above and beyond to offer an exciting curriculum that involves students in hands-on learning experiences that encourage creativity and exploration.
Our program is built around 5 pillars. These pillars form the foundation of curriculum, school beliefs, traditions, and events. They are Shared Leadership and Partnership, Creative / Innovative Problem Solving, Technical Savvy, Appreciating Cultural Diversity, and Global Thinking.
