Meet Our Principals
Welcome to Alain LeRoy Locke College Preparatory Academy!
In 2008, Green Dot Public Schools joined with teachers, parents, and the community to transform Alain LeRoy Locke High School – one of the most persistently low-achieving schools in California – and split it into several small, safe, personalized learning academies. Today, the Locke Family consists of two Academies, one serving 9th-10th graders and the other serving 11th-12th grades.
In addition to a rigorous college-prep curriculum, Locke students have the opportunity to play on athletics teams or in our world-class band. Students also have access to innovative science and technology programming. We want our students to cultivate skills and qualities that prepare them for success in college and beyond.
Our students grow into leaders who are ready to achieve. We believe it’s up to us to provide the kind of high-quality, public education that can get them where they need to go.
Student success isn’t a destination – it’s a journey that begins as soon as a student walks through the doors of Alain LeRoy Locke College Preparatory Academy. When you join the Locke Family, you become part of a 50+ year tradition of high-quality public education. Once a Saint, always a Saint.
Sincerely,
Toni Ginn & Belen Ramirez
Co-Principals
