What you can do

Who can act on Leadership Military Academy’s results?

The state has Leadership Military Academy in extra targeted support; its own board decides its plan.

Students at Leadership Military Academy are placed here by probation, district or voluntary referral.

What has the state flagged?

2025–26 is its 3rd year in a row in this support. The state named it because results were low for Black or African American students, low-income students and students with disabilities. This support comes with a school improvement plan, which must use approaches with evidence behind them and look at how money and staff are divided among schools. Ask the principal to see the school improvement plan.

Graduated in four years
2024–25 · 11 of 15 students who started 9th grade together. California Department of Education, adjusted cohort graduation records.
