History: The birth of St. Leo’s College school can be traced back to the early 1930s, when the White Fathers invited the Brothers of Christian Instruction to take over from them. Built in 1921 by the White Fathers, the college was first established at what presently stands as St. Marya Seminary in Virika, Fort Portal. By then, it was attracting pupils from St. Peters Primary School and other Catholic primary schools.  In the early 1960s, the school was shifted to its current location, on a hill overlooking the plains of Mountain Rwenzori and some parts of Fort Portal town. It was then that the school got the first black headmaster, Moses Nyakazingwa.

]At St. Leo’s College, the prowess of being champions in almost all student sports activities, the excellent academic performance, and the general serenity at the school are partly what used to attract students to this college. But, all this might is now no more. They could still be giants in sports, but not in academics, discipline and infrastructural set up.

St. Leo’s College Kyegobe has facilities and among them are a library, computer laboratory and residential dormitories.
