American Leadership Academy Lexington, 6-12 109 Innovation Place, Lexington, SC 29072

"Absolutely fantastic school that prioritizes academics, discipline, and equality. The fact that they actually enforce their rules, and do not give special treatment at every parent's whim is what has some upset - and driven to post negative reviews. The truth is that it is the best school in the county, and perhaps the state."

"This school sucks. Always adding new rules and gets mad over the littlest stuff. My sister got picked on and they did nothing to help her. They won’t let us be ourself and always wanting us to clean shave. I get it’s professional but some people don’t like to shave and you guys shouldn’t pester the kids about it. Then the phone rule we couldn’t call our parents if there is an emergency bc they always tell you to keep your phone off and in your backpack. So if there was ever a fire the parents would never know that. The kids are very disrespectful to special needs and I’ve seen some racial abuse going on"

"ALA LEXINGTON ACADEMY, IS A CHARTER SCHOOL THAT CAN BASICALLY MAKE THERE OWN DECISIONS RECORDING YOUR CHILD. SO IF THEY ARE BEING BULLIED, LIED ON OR IN A FIGHT IF THEY DECIDE TO EXPELL YOUR CHILD THEY CAN AND LET THE OTHER STUDENT WHO STARTED THINGS RETURN!!! THEY CAN ALSO SAY YOUR STUDENT HAS ACCUMULATED A LARGE AMOUNT OF TARDIES JUST SO THEY CAN HARRASS YOU ABOUT THAT DAILY. BEFORE YOU MAKE YOUR DECISIONS ON ENROLLING PLEASE EXPLORE YOUR LOCAL TRADITIONAL PUBLIC SCHOOL FIRST"
