The thing about Lead Hill High School it s a really good place to get your education and have a wonderful relationship with friends and other families.I graduated 5 years ago with the class of 2000. Yes I played ball but in order to do that my academics had to be good. Its not just about sports there

Lead Hill is where I spent my final two years in High School. I'm currently a junior at Missouri State, and I'm an honor student. My time spent at Lead Hill was great. I was not on any sports teams, but I probably should have been. It is a small school that is trying the best with what it has. Is
... Read more it the best school, probably not. It however, does have a caring teacher staff. Sports players are always getting an easier ride than regular students, but every school that I went to was like that. When I played sports at other schools, I had it made. Will your child enjoy Lead Hill? Yes, but he/she will not get the same education if say they were to go to Harrison High School. Money goes a long way in the development of children. Read less

I really hope that last review was a joke. I graduated from Lead Hill in 1998 and was one of perhaps 3-4 to go on to collage. The teachers for the most part were nice and did what they could to educate the students, unfortunately the resources available where severely lacking. The most disturbing
... Read more aspect of my high school experience was the general lack of ambition of the students, I m not sure if this problem stemmed from the teachers or the parents. The second most disturbing aspect of Lead Hill High School is the fact that they have little to no classes for collage credit. When I got to SMSU almost every freshman arrived with at least 12 hours of collage credit! I certainly did not enjoy starting behind. All in all the school is well meaning but deficient in several important aspects of education. Read less

The truth is, it's not the place for a child who does not have the right last name, or is not a star athlete. Alot of the qualified, caring teachers have already left. After all if we allow bad habits, and spitful attitudes to continue in young people,we could be encouraging that behavior. Sports seems

Parent involvement is there, but not neccessarily the right type. I have been hoping to see a change in this school for years, but it has not come. The children here like all kids deserve better. I have heard they are trying to make the much needed improvements, I pray they will succeed. For the children. Read less

If you want a close knit community around nothing but sports - go to Lead Hill! I moved in during high school and unfortunately had to graduate from Lead Hill. I found it to be the most illiterate, underpriveldged, lowest ranking, stinking slum. Students who cannot read or write are allowed to graduate
... Read more as long as they provided the athletic teams a boost. Be prepared to brown nose and bribe so your kid can graduate and look out for the principal. If a sixth grade education level is your goal, here you go! Come to think of it, no one out of Lead Hill has received an athletic scholarship despite the great importance they place on sports. Get a glowing future from Lead Hill! Well, there's my report! Read less
