The mission of Leadership High School is to serve San Francisco and its diverse students by providing a rigorous education with personal attention and developing effective community leaders. Their vision includes working to close the achievement gap for all students as they strive to demonstrate mastery of four School Wide Outcomes: communication, critical thinking, personal responsibility and social responsibility.
In the second semester of the 2006-2007 school year, Leadership High School will be merged with Phillip & Sala Burton High School. Despite strong opposition and appeals to the SFUSD, the decision is considered final.
Curriculum: The school requires students to show how they have mastered the School Wide Outcomes by requiring a portfolio to be created every year and by having students present it. The portfolio normally coincides with several other projects for different classes, which normally becomes strenuous for the students because of its "do or fail" policy.
Having mandatory assignments creates several different ramifications. Understanding the SWO's (School Wide Outcomes) are the main point of projects.
Not choosing to do the projects would be a tempting choice for students if these projects were not required.
The downside of this would be that the due dates for these projects all fall close together.
Everything done up to that point can be considered useless if the student was to fail the project as they would not be able to complete the grade level or graduate.
Receiving the highest grade possible in the portfolio and another project is the goal of the senior class because that is the requirement to complete their last year in the school.
