Legacy of Educational Excellence (LEE) High School

Welcome to LEE High School

There’s nothing stronger than the heart of a Volunteer.

Welcome to Legacy of Educational Excellence (LEE) High School, where passion, inquiry, and exploration open the door to possibility. Since 1958, LEE has provided generations of students with opportunities to challenge themselves, discover what inspires them, and prepare for successful lives beyond graduation.

What makes the LEE experience especially unique is the breadth of opportunities available on one campus. Students can pursue a comprehensive high school education while learning alongside nationally recognized programs in global studies, the arts, STEM, athletics, JROTC, fine arts, leadership, and more. Whether students arrive with a clear vision for their future or are still discovering what excites them, LEE gives Volunteers the opportunity to find their path.

What Makes LEE Special

Three Magnet Programs. One Campus.

LEE is home to three distinctive NEISD magnet programs, creating a learning community unlike any other in the district.

The International School of the Americas (ISA) engages students in project-based learning centered on global issues and prepares them to think critically about an interconnected world.

The North East School of the Arts (NESA) gives students opportunities to pursue intensive study and develop their talents across multiple artistic disciplines.

The STEM Academy challenges students through problem-based, technology-rich learning designed for those interested in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

Together, these programs bring students with different interests, talents, and perspectives into one dynamic campus community.

Find Your Passion

LEE students have countless opportunities to make their high school experience their own. From Athletics and JROTC to Band, Dance, PALS, Photography, UIL, clubs, organizations, and other extracurricular experiences, Volunteers can continue something they already love or discover an entirely new passion.

Explore What's Possible

We believe learning should spark curiosity. Students are encouraged to ask questions, investigate ideas, challenge themselves, and make connections between what they learn and the world around them. Through rigorous academics and diverse learning opportunities, Volunteers develop the confidence and independence to take ownership of their future.

The Heart of a Volunteer

LEE is a diverse community connected by generations of traditions, experiences, and Volunteer pride. Students from across our comprehensive and magnet programs come together as one campus community, bringing different perspectives and talents while sharing the experiences that make being a Volunteer something special.

Passion. Inquiry. Exploration.

At LEE High School, there isn't one definition of success—and there isn't only one path to reach it. Whether a student's future leads to a university, conservatory, technical program, career, military service, entrepreneurship, or somewhere they haven't discovered yet, LEE provides opportunities to explore their interests and prepare to take that next step with confidence.

Passion. Inquiry. Exploration. That’s LEE High School.
