Through cross-disciplinary & intentional career exploration, Longfellow Career Exploration Academy empowers advanced scholars to be academically prepared, critically-thinking, collaborative leaders.
Longfellow Career Exploration Academy empowers students to excel in an evolving society through a challenging academic and collaborative environment that includes specialized courses, leadership development, enhancement of critical thinking skills, and career exploration. Our project-based, collaborative learning experiences improve academic achievement and student engagement and provide students with multiple opportunities to integrate the arts across disciplines.
We offer a robust selection of curricular and extracurricular activities and programs, including computer science, art, music, dance, theatre, law, robotics, hospitality and technology. All students receive Pre-AP core academic courses and we offer a wide selection of classes for high school credit to fully prepare our students for advanced level courses in high school.
The Henry W. Longfellow Career Exploration Academy was created as part of the Dallas ISD desegregation order. The school is a "free-standing" academy in that the only students who attend school at Longfellow Academy are those accepted into the program.
Longfellow Career Exploration Academy is thriving in our new building, more than double the size of our previous campus! This year, we're raising funds to directly support our 528 students and incredible staff.
