Leslie High School

Leslie High School operates on a 5-period per day trimester format. All courses in the core areas have been assigned a course owner (a member of the teaching staff) who has developed a course syllabus that ensures that the High School Content Expectations (HSCEs) in the Michigan Merit Curriculum will be taught as part of the course. Each syllabus contains a timeline that shows the students when each important topic will be studied. Common end-of-trimester assessments are given in cases where more than one teacher teaches a particular course. We recognize that the arts, athletics, and other exploratory classes are important parts of the development of the total student. To that end, we also strive to provide an array of classes where students can immerse themselves. Our ultimate goal is to provide rigor in thought, relevance to the students' lives, an appreciation of the humanities, and a base for a successful future.
