It's no secret that Kansas City schools have
had their share of disappointments in recent times. Parents have
been faced with difficult choices. Most cannot afford private
schooling for their children, yet they also cannot afford to allow
their children's education and well-being to suffer. With this in
mind, a community vision was realized; the Missouri Department of
Education and the University of Missouri at Kansas City approved
the Charter for the Lee A. Tolbert Community Academy.
The foundation of the Lee A. Tolbert Community Academy is based
upon integrity, respect, and character -- both for students and
staff. Children develop positive habits, in their studies and in
their life, by example and through daily practice. Students are
given a fair opportunity to learn -- and to be heard -- feeling
empowered in their desire and motivation for education. These are
not just words; they are essential to our success, and it works!
In fact, many of our staffs' own children attend Tolbert Academy.
Small size classes with large modern size classrooms provide an
ideal educational environment. |
