These brave souls *hate* being the center of attention in math class... but they ROCKED the Bellwork and presentations anyway!

Plaza Academy is up and running! We have had a successful first week and are proud that our school is able to provide our students and their families with in-person, hybrid, and virtual options this year. If you know anyone that is struggling with school and are need of a small, safe learning environment with a full time social worker and therapists on staff, please call us at 816-561-0770 or email [email protected]

Adjusting to the new normal #covidteaching

It is with the absolute heaviest of hearts that we regret to announce to our community that one of our family members passed yesterday evening. Trevion McAfee, a 2019 Plaza Academy graduate, frequently visited Plaza Academy post graduation while attending Penn Valley Community College, and continued to be a big part of our lives. Trevion spoke at every Plaza Academy event and was featured on our video. He, like the majority of our students, came to us feeling depressed and in despair. As he settled into our program he truly became a superstar, experiencing success and always acting as an advocate and mentor for our students. As our Plaza Academy family mourns the loss of such a bright, shining individual, we will never, ever forget his monumental presence in our lives. https://www.kctv5.com//article_e79c2ddc-cffb-11ea-b9ba-a3b

Plaza Academy Spring 2020 Newsletter - https://mailchi.mp/f14/plaza-academy-spring-2020-newsletter

Welcome to Virtual Plaza Academy! Teachers are working hard to get their Google Classrooms up and running and students are already working hard on their assignments. ...and the teacher’s own children are working hard on their assignments too. For the most part.

Kids always listen better when they’re hearing it from a peer. A huge THANK YOU! to Tina’s daughter, Jada, for speaking to our classes this afternoon about her experiences transitioning from graduating early, to working full time and being a college student full time.

8:30am and Alexis has a full classroom of super focused students! They are working on their analytic cubism shattered image artwork with an emphasis on value study.
