2020-2021 Update

We know you have many questions about the upcoming school year. Thank you for your patience as we develop a plan to welcome students back to school in this dynamic environment. We’re receiving on-going guidance from various groups, including Missouri’s Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. As we prepare for the upcoming school year, we will resume weekly updates to share information with your family.

Our first day of school is August 24, 2020. At this time we intend to offer the three options described on our recent survey: in-person learning, remote learning and a hybrid model. Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey and share your input. Our leadership team values your feedback and reads every response. Please know that once we are able to finalize plans, your family will be able to choose which model best meets your needs.

Education grounded in social justice is foundational to the vision and mission of Academy for Integrated Arts. Our continued work must include all voices. Please join a listening session to share your perspectives and questions: https://forms.gle/seEyQufnakHKwox98.
