The LEAD Prep Academy, powered by The L.E.A.D Foundation and the Legacy Center Sports Complex, will open in March of 2024. The purpose of this institution is to provide student-athletes with social, academic and athletic development.

​

The LEAD Prep Academy is structured to combine the benefits of post-graduate and junior college football. Student athletes will be placed on an academic plan to graduate with their associate degree from an HLC-accredited institution in 5 semesters (20 months). However, student athletes will not burn any seasons of competition during their “post-graduate” year, immediately following high school graduation. Student athletes can enroll and participate in spring practices as early as their senior year of high school.
