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.

School has always been exciting and full of joy. I would like to see the unifrom policy changed because it would be much cheaper to purchase regular clothes other than assigned uniforms every year.

I liked that Leland High School had very understanding teachers who were willing to offer different learning styles. I would like to see the environment change such as improvement on the overall building itself.

Leland High School is a very unique school. The people there are welcoming and kind. Despite doing schoolwork everyday and waking up in the morning, Leland High School is very much like home. Whenever I'm at school, I feel 100% safe. Academics are very important to us and being successful is every student's dream.
