A Leal Jr Middle

Nestled in the south San Antonio community served by Harlandale ISD, A. Leal Jr. Middle draws families who are rooted in this tight-knit, working-class neighborhood where school pride and local identity run deep. The school shows more strength in math than in English or science, which is worth keeping in mind for families with academically ambitious middle schoolers who may want to seek out additional enrichment resources. South San Antonio has a strong sense of community and cultural heritage, and for families already planted here, Leal is the neighborhood school that reflects the character of the area it serves.
