LPA has had many accomplishments over the last couple of years! LPA was recently recognized for the highest outcomes of all charter schools in Missouri and scored in the top 8% of all Missouri schools. LPA also received its 10-year Charter renewal from the State Board of Education this year. Last year LPA joined the Diverse Coalition of Charter Schools and had not one but two, staff members win the Charter School Leader of the year! This year LPA began its very first performing arts program expanding our offering of specials to our students and continuing our growth with athletics.
