We hope you find our website educational and inspiring. The Lee Next Step Fund could not exist without the help of community supporters like you. About Us
We are a small non-profit organization committed to the Lee High School community (Houston, TX) to ensure that more low-income, at-risk students gain access to college- and career-preparatory learning experiences while they are still in high school. These experiences help ensure more students are put on track to the next step of a successful future.Paypal Donate

Next Step Welcomes New FLO Coordinator at Lee HS
Ms. Fallon McAfee, a recent graduate of the University of Houston, will serve as Lee High School's FLO Coordinator in the 2010 - 2011 school year. Welcome Ms. McAfee. With the support of Lee's new principal Xotichl Rodriguez-Davila and the Lee faculty, Ms. McAfee will lead students to apply and participate in top college- and career- prep programs locally, nationally, and internationally. Next Step will continue to be instrumental in supporting Ms. McAfee, Lee students, and the life-changing possibilities that are FLOs.
2009 - 2010 Lee Next Step Fund's Biggest Year Yet!
On July 31, our 09-10 fiscal year closed. Thanks to great supporters, Lee Next Step pulled in over $70,000 this year -- over 85% of which went directly to putting students into college and career-prep learning programs across the country and even internationally. It's clear - the community realizes the importance of our mission and students are benefiting as a result. More updates will be coming soon about our organization's strategic direction moving forward, financial goals, and the continued need for your help.
Are you a Lee Alum?
We'd love to hear from you!
Lee High School is a Houston high school legacy. Founded in 1962, Lee is the alma mater of a large and dynamic group of citizens across our city, state, and country. While the "Lee today" is drastically different from the Robert E. Lee that began years ago, our commitment to excellence hasn't waivered. Our hope is that all Lee alumni, regardless of graduation year, encounter success in their own lives and contribute to the future success of generations to come.
If you are a Lee Alum and would like to find out ways that you can support the Lee Next Step Fund or simply connect with other Lee Alum doing so, please contact us.
