John L. LeFlore Magnet High School of Advanced Communications and Fine Performing Arts, also known as John L. LeFlore High School, is a historic public magnet preparatory academy located in Toulminville, Mobile, Alabama, United States. LeFlore offers advanced communication, academic, fine and performing art, and career technical programs. John L. LeFlore is accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.

Founded in 1968, John L. LeFlore Magnet High School of Advanced Communications and Fine Performing Arts is one of the most astute, prestigious, secondary schools in Alabama. From 1968 through 1980, the school was known as Toulminville High School, offering secondary education to upper-middle class students within the Toulminville suburb. In 1981 the school was renamed John L. LeFlore High School in honor of Mr. John L. LeFlore, a Mobile NAACP leader who became the first African-American elected to the legislature in Mobile County. The renaming of the school brought about a move into an authentic, state of the art building with the amenities that would equip the institution for the upcoming magnet program. It wasn't until the mid 1980's that the learning institution gained a magnet program thus changing the name to John L. LeFlore Magnet High School of Advanced Communications and Fine Performing Arts. Upon garnering the magnet title, LeFlore received students throughout the county of Mobile, AL. Students enrolled in LeFlore's Magnet Program come as far as Deer Park, AL to Grand Bay, AL. With a student-faculty ratio of 17 to 1, LeFlore's teachers are able to work more closely with students, encourage more ambition, and challenge students to better meet their academic success. Also preparatory academies are largely independent of state and local control for these controls are viewed by prep school proponents as an unacceptable burden on schooling, education and eventual university matriculation.

LeFlore, in conjunction with the Alabama YMCA Youth Judicial Program, has incorporated a unique study of the judiciary system into its curriculum. The program was initiated when the Mobile Bar Association chose to sponsor LeFlore students in the Alabama Youth Judicial Competition held in Montgomery, Alabama. The competition, held November 2007, was a three day mock trial for high school students that followed a step by step demonstration of an actual law case. The students were able to re-enact the lawsuit which presided in a courtroom while working with lawyers as coaches from the Bar Association. The students, led by Toulminville High School alumni Mrs. Bonita English of LeFlore Magnet High School, had taken several months to learn each procedure and role of the judiciary system from judge, jury, prosecuting and defense attorneys to witnesses. This event has been successful in encouraging student's interest in pursuing law as a career and the launch of LeFlore's Pre-Law Program.

History

Where is LeFlore?

Toulminville is a district in Mobile, Alabama that began a small settlement on the property of Theophilus Toulmin, who served as sheriff of Mobile County in the 1830s. During the American Civil War, Toulminville was mapped along the Mobile and Ohio Railroad as a significant settlement northwest of Mobile. Toulminville remained a largely rural settlement until after the Civil War. Growth within the city of Mobile caused an overflow into Toulminville, which slowly took on the character of a suburb. Part of Toulminville was annexed into the city of Mobile in the 1920s and the whole of Toulminville in 1945. During World War II, Toulminville had become an upper-middle class suburb with many affluent neighborhoods built along Stanton and Summerville Streets. By the 1960s issues caused by desegregation and an upsurge of crime on Mobile's northside caused the district which was majority white to become nearly 80% black by 1975. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Toulminville had a serious crime problem; however, that trend has been tremendously reversed due to a concentrated effort by the Mobile Police Department, LeFlore Task Force, community leaders [cite web | title = Community Leaders of LeFlore| publisher = MCPSS | url = http://old.mcpss.com/Default.asp?PN='NewsStory'&DivisionID=&DepartmentID=&SubDepartmentID=&NewsID=602&ShowNav=&StoryGroup=&Keyword=leflore| accessdate = 2006-03-08] and residents to restore the standard and values of the community.Toulminville is the birthplace of Major General William Crawford Gorgas who takes on the status of Toulminville Community Hero, as several streets and an elementary school are named in his honor. leader, who became the first African-American elected to the legislature in Mobile County, and where LeFlore High School was established.

John L. LeFlore Magnet High School began as Toulminville High School which opened in 1968 as a public frontier school amid issues caused by desegregation and crime. Toulminville High School offered a complete secondary education to students living within the suburb; including modern languages, literature, mathematics, military science and musical arts at a high academic level. Along with being a great school academically, Toulminville gained popularity as a well-groomed, all-around high school. Principal Mr. Charles T. Rhodes, the Roundball Rattlers led by Coach J.D. Shellwood, the Mighty Marching Rattler Band directed by Mr. Marion Ward and the Football Squad led by athletic director and Coach Mr. William Jessie [cite web | title = Coach Jessie| publisher = LeFlore | url = http://leflore.mcs.schoolinsites.com/?PageName=LatestNews&Section=Highlights&ItemID=26913&ISrc=School&Itype=Highlights&SchoolID=101 | accessdate = 2008-05-21] were prominent forces within Toulminville High School and the Toulminville Community. Toulminville graduated its final class in 1980 before being renamed John L. LeFlore High School. Toulminville High School's yearbook is the TOUHIRA, Toulminville High Rattler.

Who is John L. LeFlore?

John L. LeFlore's contributions to Mobile becoming a more prominent city in the south vary educationally, financially, personally, racially and socially. Mr. LeFlore served in leadership positions in many organizations ranging from the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters to the Mobile Committee for the Support of Public Education.Born May 17, 1903 in Mobile, Alabama to Dock and Clara LeFlore, John L. LeFlore's career as a community leader and a civil rights activist spanned fifty years. He was the most significant figure in the struggle for black equality in Mobile, throughout the southern part of Alabama and Mississippi, and along the Florida Gulf Coast. The John L. LeFlore Papers tell important stories about the civil rights movement in the urban south, document the development and early work of the NAACP in Mobile and provide insight into his life and aspirations. In December 1925, after graduating Owen Academy in 1920 and marrying Teah Beck in 1922, LeFlore began corresponding with the national office about the reorganization of the Mobile Branch of the NAACP that was organized in 1919 but became inactive in the early 1920s. By March 1926, Mr. LeFlore had mobilized enough people to apply for a new charter. LeFlore served as executive secretary for the branch from its inception to 1956. He also served as chairman of the organization's Regional Conference of Southern Branches from 1936 to 1945, a critical period in its development, and was vice-president of the Alabama Conference from 1945 to 1956. In 1956, when the NAACP was outlawed in Alabama, LeFlore and others in Mobile shifted their civil rights work to the Non-Partisan Voters League, where LeFlore served as director of case work from 1959 to 1975. LeFlore remained with the league even after the ban was lifted in 1964 and the Mobile branch of the NAACP was reorganized. The NAACP correspondence in the "LeFlore Papers" [cite web | title = A Guide to the Papers of John L. LeFlore| publisher = University of South Alabama | url = http://www.southalabama.edu/archives/html/manuscript/lefloreintro.htm | accessdate = 1976-01-01 ] do not begin until 1930, but information about the early years of the Mobile Branch and Regionals Conference may be found in the NAACP papers at the Library of Congress.

LeFlore participated in many organizations and served on various state committees. In addition to civil rights, these groups represent public work in areas such as prison reform, health and family planning, veterans' rights, labor unions, public education and general charity. In addition, he was a radio commentator for a public service program, "Today's World", for many years. He and Foley, of Spring Hill College, organized a committee for the support of public education in 1973. This committee received federal funds to mount an intensive ad campaign against racial disturbances in public schools. LeFlore was a news correspondent for the "Chicago Defender", the "Pittsburgh Courier" and the "Associated Negro Press" and covered many of the civil rights violations that occurred in the south. The "Chicago Defender" awarded LeFlore a citation for covering the lynching of four black people in Monroe, Georgia in 1946. LeFlore later became associate editor of the "Mobile Beacon" and wrote many editorials and features for this weekly newspaper.

From Toulminville to John L. LeFlore

In 1981, Toulminville High School was officially renamed John L. LeFlore High School. The school relocated from St. Stephens Rd. to Donald St. in a new, state of the art, learning facility on the same lot. The expansion brought about many amenities; some of which include: fully epuipped chemistry and photography labs, dance studio, swimming pool and weight room. LeFlore High School graduated its first class in 1981 under the vision, "to educate all students in a supportive, challenging, and disciplined environment to become lifelong learners whose performance is a credit to themselves and society", which would become the school's mission statement. Over the next decade, LeFlore High School developed an extracurricular face, vocational courses, career technical programs, a valuable education to offer, a magnet program and many other diversifying programs. After receiving the magnet certification, LeFlore High School received students throughout all of Mobile County, renamed the school John L. LeFlore Magnet High School of Advanced Communications and Fine Performing Arts and as of the 1995-1996 school year began wearing uniforms which consisted of:

The school is designed on an open campus-style setting with two detached buildings separated by outdoor walkways covering 25% of the campus area leaving a bright future for LeFlore to expand over a greater portion of the campus and build more academic buildings and classrooms. The campus is located at the corner of Clinton Avenue and Donald Street. Bishop State Community College's Carver Campus is located approximately one mile (1.6 km) southwest of the school and USA Medical Center is located approximately half a mile (0.8 km) west of the school.

LeFlore Magnet High School was constructed in 1980 and consists of two buildings: the L building and the athletic facility. The L building contains the cafeteria, computer labs, counselors' offices, courtyards, dance studio, engineering classrooms, greenhouse, JROTC classrooms, library, locker rooms, locker wells, mini-gym, music and vocational classrooms, nurse's office, photography classroom and darkroom, piano lab, portrait studio, Rattlers' Den gymnasium, science labs, showers, swimming pool, theatre, tv production studio, and weightroom.

Their primary objectives are to create a medium which will stimulate children's growth and development, provide constructive educational, cultural, civic, recreational, social and service programs as well as aiding mothers in learning more about their children and childcare through educational conferences and workshops. Jack and Jill has recently incorporated a program for fathers to become a more integral part called the Father's Auxiliary.

The LeBeautillion Militaire Program was organized in 1986 by the Jack and Jill of America, Indiana Chapter, to provide a personal development experience and recognition event for high school males.

Kimberly-Clark Hi-Q

Kimberly-Clark Hi-Q, formerly Scott Hi-Q, is the oldest academic quiz competition in the United States which began in 1948 in Pennsylvania. It presently takes place as an intracounty competition in four states: Pennsylvania, Washington, Wisconsin and as of 1987 Alabama. Each team consists of ten students competing in thirteen subject areas:
*Art History
*Biology
*Chemistry
*Current Events
*Geography
*Literature
*Mathematics
*Physics
*Shakespeare
*Sports
*US Government
*US History
*World HistoryOver the years, new reference materials were added and students began to answer questions based on specific categories and reference works. Questions are selected from standard high school scholastic curricula, general scholastic or knowledge. Each high school competes in three matches each season, excluding possible semi-final and championship appearances. Each match consists of three competing teams which is hosted by one of the participating schools in that match. Matches are typically held in the high school auditorium on stage, before an audience of students, teachers, faculty, and community leaders. Questions are read aloud by the Quizmaster and at all times team members use buzzers to answer questions. Points awarded throughout the season accumulate and determine semi-final and championship entry eligibility. LeFlore has participated in the Kimberly-Clark Hi-Q since the early 90s.

Mighty Marching Rattler Band

The John L. LeFlore Mighty Marching Rattler Band began in 1968 as Toulminville High Mighty Marching Rattler Band under the direction and guidance of Mr. Marion Ward and Mr. James Seals. Mr. Ward, a Dixieland trombonist, known for his sweet, smooth tone and improvisational talent, has been identified as one of the best trombone players in the area. Upon receiving a degree from Alabama State University in Music Education, Mr. Ward established himself as a successful music educator at Booker T. Washington Middle School, Toulminville High School and John L. LeFlore High School.

Toulminville High Mighty Marching Rattler Band gained notoriety upon its inception for its distinct quality of sound, sparkling halftime shows, marching techniques, and rattler pride. The qualities Mr. Ward established with the Mighty Marching Rattler Band throughout his tenure from Toulminville to LeFlore were passed to the bands next director, Mr. Terrence Mixon, a LeFlore graduate who played under Mr. Ward and further established the bands motto: "THE BEST BAND IN THE LAND" by winning numerous awards, band competitions, and invitations to collegiate homecomings and the Martin Luther King Jr. parade in Atlanta, GA.

Under the direction of Mr. Standifer, the band has continued to hold true to the core values established by Mr. Ward at Toulminville while propelling to extraordinary heights. The Mighty Marching Rattler Band consists of a highly technical percussion section(DΦD), tubas(Silver Bullets), baritones(BΦT), trombones(TΦB), french horns(FΦH), trumpets(TΦB), saxophones(SΦ), clarinettes(CΦNettes), flutes(FΦP), piccolos(FΦP), drummajors, and two auxiliary units which are the Strikettes Dance Team(DΦG) and Flag Corporation(FΦC). Composed of talented musicians, the Mighty Marching Rattler Band has generated a genuine pride in the entire student body at LeFlore and Toulminville as a result of their stellar performances in the state of Alabama and the country. The Mobile County Public School System recently acknowledged the band as one of the finest bands in the state for its participation in an adjudicated, invitation-only battle of the bands in Montgomery, Alabama. The competition included magnificent band programs such as: Jeff Davis, Booker T. Washington, Selma, Calhoun High Schools and many more. The competition was fierce but the LeFlore Mighty Marching Rattler Band placed 1st in all categories, swept the competition and dethroned the current champs with authority. The ultimate prize for winning the competition wasn't just a trophy, but an all-expense paid trip to perform with the National Football League at selected games exemplfying Rattler Pride, precision and exiciting show band entertainment.

Measures of Success

John L. LeFlore Magnet High School was one of forty one Mobile County Public Schools to receive a Performance Award. LeFlore High School students' performances exceeded the challenge set by state officials. LeFlore is a school with a subgroup whose percent of students scoring proficient in reading and mathematics exceeded its state counterpart. For this accomplishment the school received a montary award for $20,000 which will go directly to the school and be invested in instructional improvement programs and materials voted on by the teaching faculty. In Alabama, schools and systems are evaluated based on student performance with Alabama content standards, attendance rates and graduation rates. The ability to reach the goal becomes more difficult yearly as the percent of students who must reach the objective increases. As of the 2007-2008 school year, LeFlore Magnet High School has Exceeded the Challenge.
