Land Acquisition

A growing city deserves a growing school.

Huntsville continues to lead Alabama in innovation, opportunity, and growth. As the city's premier School, Randolph must be ready to grow alongside it. Acquiring 26 additional acres secures our future, creates room for generations of students, and makes it possible to unite our campuses into one connected community.

Leo Center for Excellence

Leo Center for Excellence

Where every Raider comes together.

The Leo Center for Excellence is the heartbeat of Randolph. More than a place to compete or create, it's where relationships are built, ideas are shared, and traditions are born. By bringing together students, families, alumni, and the broader community, the Center strengthens the connections that make Randolph unlike any other school.

A New Lower School

Designed for the way children learn.

Extraordinary teachers deserve extraordinary spaces. The new Lower School creates neighborhood-style learning communities where collaboration happens naturally, curiosity flourishes, and students build meaningful relationships from their earliest years. Every classroom, courtyard, and shared space is intentionally designed to support the remarkable teaching already happening at Randolph.

 

Our Priorities.
Our Future.

The Building Community campaign is guided by our top three priorities in the School’s strategic plan.

The Leo Center for Excellence at Randolph School

Excellence has always defined the Randolph experience, and the Leo Center for Excellence is a bold expression of that enduring commitment.

Our Vision

Strengthening connection, belonging, and the future of both Randolph and the greater Huntsville community.

Karl Leo

Lead Donor

“We've been able to help meet a need. I view Randolph as a snowball going downhill, and it's gathering momentum. My family and I are just so happy to be a part of that.”

Marshall Schreeder Jr., ‘96

Campaign Co-Chair

“We’ve seen in our own families and in our community the lifelong impact of a Randolph education. That’s why we believe so deeply in the Building Community campaign. This effort isn’t just about adding square footage; it’s about creating environments where students feel seen, supported, and inspired to grow.”

Melissa Dodgen

Campaign Co-Chair

“Strong schools shape strong communities, and strong communities are built by people who believe in the future and choose to invest in it. Your support is a direct investment in the students and families who will lead Huntsville forward.”

Adam Dubé

Head of School

“Just as Huntsville is a city on the rise, Randolph is a school at an inflection point. We need spaces that support deeper learning and stronger connections. Momentum is on our side — and, as physics reminds us, the harder it is to stop.”

Commitment to Community

The Building Community campaign is Randolph’s boldest step yet. It will unite students across all grades, strengthen belonging, and create a vibrant campus where every learner is empowered to grow, connect, and dream big. This historic campaign marks a pivotal investment in Randolph’s next era of excellence.
