Summary

Legacy Of Educational Excellence High School (LEE) is a large, comprehensive high school in San Antonio, TX, serving 2,285 students in grades 9-12 as part of the North East Independent School District (Isd), with over 66% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch. The school has seen a recent decline in its state ranking, earning a 2-star rating in recent years, and its graduation rate of 80.8% is notably lower than the district average of about 88% and significantly below nearby schools like Alamo Heights High School (94.8%) and Edison High School (95.3%). This is coupled with a dropout rate of 4.8%, which is more than double the district average, indicating challenges in student retention and on-time graduation.

When compared to other schools in the area, LEE's academic performance is mixed. It significantly outperforms high-poverty schools like Jefferson High School and Edison in subjects like English I Reading, where LEE's proficiency rate of 50.1% is much higher than their rates of around 31%. However, it is dramatically outperformed by Alamo Heights, which scores 20-30 percentage points higher in most subjects. Interestingly, LEE shares its campus with the International School Of America, a magnet school that achieves a 5-star rating and a 99.2% graduation rate, highlighting that the challenges at LEE may be tied to the specific student population it serves rather than a lack of resources.

There are some positive signs. The most recent test score data shows a significant one-year improvement, with Algebra I proficiency jumping from 19.2% to 37.1% and English I Reading from 36.0% to 50.1%, suggesting a potential turnaround. Additionally, LEE has a history of strong performance with its "At Risk" students, consistently earning a 3-star rating in that subgroup. The school's most critical task is to address the disparities in outcomes for different student groups, particularly its low socio-economic status students, while building on these recent gains to return to its previous 3-star rating.
