Lee-Scott Academy (LSA) is a Christ-centered, college-preparatory school located in Auburn, Alabama, serving approximately 800 students from preschool through grade 12. Since its founding in 1981, LSA has established itself as a leading independent Christian school in the region, known for its commitment to academic excellence, spiritual formation, and whole-child development. With a mission to provide a high-quality education in an environment where students are nurtured and challenged through biblical principles, LSA offers a dynamic and supportive community where students are known, valued, and prepared for lives of purpose and impact.
Following a decade of faithful leadership, LSA now seeks its next Head of School at a time of notable strength and opportunity. In partnership with NextEd, the Board of Trustees will conduct a comprehensive national search to identify a dynamic, mission-aligned leader who can build upon the school’s momentum and guide it into its next chapter. With continued enrollment growth, strong community support, and a clear strategic vision for the future, LSA is well-positioned for ongoing excellence. The next Head of School will be a visionary and relational leader—one who demonstrates deep commitment to Christ-centered education, brings strategic clarity, and is equipped to lead the school to even greater levels of impact across Alabama and the broader Southeast.
