Dual enrollment is now available! This program gives high school students the opportunity to earn college credits while still completing their high school coursework. It’s a smart way to get ahead, explore future career paths, and save on college costs. Whether your student is planning for college or looking to challenge themselves academically, dual enrollment can help them take that next step toward their goals.

Last night, we celebrated our seniors as they graduated from Kansas City Academy. During their time at KCA, three seniors became Certified Nurse Aides, several students have participated in summer art programs across the country, and one student performs with a band outside KCA. Impressively, the class has received a total of $739,500 in scholarships. We are extremely proud of our senior class and can’t wait to see what they will do in their next chapters.

Special thank you to Morgan Miller at Morgan Miller Photography. Thank you for taking amazing pictures of our seniors!
