Leadership Academy

Leadership Academy is a 7 school located in Katy, TX, serving grades 7–11 and approximately 41 students. Operated by Excel Academy, the campus sits about 28.6 miles from The Houston's newsroom and is part of The Houston's ongoing local education coverage.

The school employs roughly 5 full-time-equivalent classroom teachers for a student-to-teacher ratio of about 8.2:1. That ratio is below the state average for TX, generally an indicator of smaller class sizes and more individualized instruction.

Leadership Academy operates as a publicly funded charter school. These designations affect funding, enrollment policy, and the kinds of state and federal accountability measures the campus is subject to.

State accountability ratings for TEA are released annually and combine student achievement, growth, and closing-the-gaps metrics. The Houston publishes rating updates as soon as they become public each fall, with comparisons to nearby campuses and prior-year trends.

The Houston covers Leadership Academy's news as part of broader education reporting for Katy families and educators.
