LISA Academy is proud to share the results of the Arkansas Department of Education’s simulated school letter grades, which reflect significant academic growth and continued excellence across the public charter school district. These ratings are based on the updated ATLAS accountability measures for the 2023–24 academic year.

LISA Academy is honored to announce that our Gifted and Talented (GT) program has been recognized by the Office of Education Policy (OEP) for achieving the best GT growth scores among large districts in the state. This prestigious recognition highlights our commitment to providing exceptional opportunities for our gifted students, fostering academic excellence, and ensuring their continuous growth. We are incredibly proud of our dedicated educators, supportive families, and hardworking students who have contributed to this achievement. This honor reaffirms LISA Academy’s mission to cultivate a dynamic and enriching learning environment where all students can reach their full potential.

Thank you to Mr. Shelby Thomas for visiting our campus! He was able to tour the school with student ambassadors and spoke to students about what his role as a councilman is like and the importance of local government.
