I love how all of the teachers are so willing to help any student. They offer extra time after and before school to help students. I Love how we have laptops because I kind of know how to work one now. But I want our privileges to increase with our technology because currently we can barley do anything because everything is restricted.

I like that the teachers are so caring about their students. Leake Academy is a good school. I would like to see some things change though. I think we should focus less on sports and more on academics.

The teacher are truly knowledgeable about the subject that they teach, and they genuinely care about each individual student. If a student is struggling or gets behind, the teacher will go out of his or her way to help and offer any assistance needed to the student. The teachers prepare the students for college and real like events.
