Joy James Academy of Leadership

Nestled in the culturally rich west side of Fort Worth, Joy James Academy of Leadership sits in a tight-knit community where families value schools that go beyond the basics to build character and civic identity. The school holds its own academically, with particularly solid science scores that outpace a good chunk of the state, making it a reasonable fit for families who want a neighborhood school with a purposeful mission baked into its name. Castleberry ISD has long served a close community of working families in this corner of Tarrant County, and parents drawn to leadership-focused programming and a strong sense of place will find something genuine here.
