[edit] Curriculum

Leo has along with most of Indiana adopted a credit system called Core 40, requiring 40 credits — four years of English, three years of Math and Social Studies and Science, and 10-12 elective credits, plus two semesters of Phys. Ed and a credit in Health Education. Leo also offers a slightly more rigorous Academic Honors Diploma, which requires 47 credits, and a basic one that requires 40 credits like Core 40, but lowers the bar in the Core 40 six-credit subjects to just four credits.

Leo currently has operated on the trimester school schedule since the 2001-2002 school year, which divides the year into three terms called trimesters. A trimester is twelve weeks, and five classes are scheduled per trimester that meet every day. Teachers have one of the five periods free for "prep time."

Leo Junior/Senior High School currently has been branded as Leo High School Career Majors Academy, although the official name remains unchanged.
