Science Leadership Academy

This school is amazing, to have a staff that' is fully involved with their students and an awesome principal who is very engaged with everyone including parents is a blessing. I love this school!! My son is now a senior I'm going to miss you guys!!

I love this school! Awesome Principal and the Teachers are Amazing. I will be honored if my son get accepted for 2017-2018!

You always hear about how Philadelphia schools care more about the money than the kids; how the teachers consider their positions as just a job rather than an opportunity to help a student grow. This school is in every way, shape and form not your typical Philadelphia public school. I am a 2011 graduate from Science Leadership Academy (SLA) and never truly understood how much the teachers wanted to make an impact on our lives and education. This is the school to be if you want your child, or you to feel accepted, not only as an individual but also as a person with creative views and thoughts. Even after you graduate, you can still feel the connection you have with the school (ex. Many graduates still come back to Philadelphia to visit previous teachers, including Principle Lehmann). I personally feel a connection with this school, probably even more since I graduated. My father passed right after I graduated high school and at the funeral, while walking down the isle, it was Mr. Lehmann who pulled me in for a well needed hug, saying that everything would be okay. Now, I'm not sure how it is at other high schools, but for him to have made time to come to such an important event really made a difference and impacted my thoughts in a whole new way on what it means to be part of the SLA community. Being part of SLA is being part of a family. To this day I still keep in touch with the faculty of SLA, knowing that they are part of the reason I am here as a junior at Temple University with more than a 3.0 GPA. One day, I hope I'll be able to give back to this school that has given so much to me.

I absolutely love this school. It's challenging, diverse and different. I know my child will be well prepared for college!

Very challenging, but very uplifting at the same time. The family aspect of it all makes it even better, students arent aftaid to go to teachers and teachers are there for students. This level of education needs to be in every school.

I truley had a amazing time while i was there seems like went so fast where does our time go??

Hope i expect as much from the reviews but we are now moving up north pilly to ben fr/

The best public high school ever.

This is my dream school until I go to college.
