GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

i would like for Detroit leadership academy to have better teachers, more textbooks and resources, to prepare us more for college, and to have more people excited to come to school. i would like for staff members to care about learning as much as they care about suspending students.

I like that the school had great teachers. Overall I'd change the way these young adults act. The food is great and facility is okay. The councelers are fine as well.

it was good, we had little bit of a turnover with the administration but it was good...i also think they could have done a little more to help the seniors with scholarships too....I believe that more effort could have been given to the seniors, especially since they have only about 50 seniors....i have an upcoming senior so im gonna make sure they help the kids achieve the potiental and get all the scholarship money they deserve...
