About Us

The Leon High School Foundation was chartered in January 1981, as a first-of-its-kind 501(c)(3) organization augmenting state and federal funding with private funds to a public high school.  Going beyond tax dollars, the Foundation has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars which help bridge the gap between the average and the excellent educational experience for all Leon students.

The Foundation Board of Trustees, in conjunction with the school administration and faculty, identifies areas of need and sets priorities for the use of undesignated gifts to the Foundation. Priority is given to expenditures that offer the maximum amount of assistance to the greatest number of Leon High School students.
