When you completely immerse yourself in a community by learning and living together, the overall experience is more meaningful than a typical school experience: your friendships become stronger, your understanding of others grows immensely, and the many petty arguments you have with your parents happen much less (which means they’ll be even happier to see you at home).

We are trying to provide a part of this experience also to our day students. They participate in after-school activities (clubs, sports) or activities during some weekends and offsites.

LEAF Academy makes me look forward to school every day, my teachers are my friends and the residence has become my second home. Now I see the true meaning of learning and how many new opportunities it brought me.

At LEAF Academy, you will be guided along the way by both residential and non-residential staffulty (staff and teachers) who ensure that your time outside of the classroom is fun, safe and continues to promote self-development. All of the time you spend with friends and staffulty outside of the classroom can really become the best part of a boarding school experience.

It is essential for leaders in the 21st century to develop cultural competency and interpersonal skills in addition to academic knowledge.
