I finally happened upon the term dyslexia and had my son tested – he had all the classic signs, and everything then fell into place. He is currently in his 3rd year at LKA. School is a fun, creative place for him now. He is allowed to be himself and is accepted for who he is. The teachers genuinely care for the students and help them focus on their strengths while overcoming their academic difficulties…Instead of seeing him in tears when I pick him up from school, he talks my ear off about all the fun things that happened at school that day. LKA has truly been a blessing!

Testimonials
Our Students & Parents Are Saying...
My husband and I started touring private schools and a friend told us about Louisiana Key Academy. I toured with Heather and was blown away. She assured me that even though Ian was broken, defeated, and lost, they had a place for him. I knew my prayers for a place for Ian had been answered… I'm so grateful to all the people who make LKA such an outstanding school. I'm just in awe of how it's run-- the staff and teachers, the communication, and its mission being carried out daily in the life of my son.
Ian's Mom
To put our child first, was a decision we needed to make. Mabrie was having trouble following multi-step directions and her reading was not where it should have been. She would get really frustrated, confused, and her grades were dropping. My husband and I made the decision to change schools…Now, it is amazing to see her come home happy and ready to get up the next morning for school. Her attitude and grades have improved tremendously. I'm so impressed with her teacher's ability, as well as the care and attention. Keep up the good work, you are making a difference!
Mabrie's Parents
In only about 4 months, Abigail has progressed in SO many areas on SO many levels! As a family, we all knew Abby was 'smart' so daily melt-downs and arguments about homework were totally out of the norm. After employing a couple of after school tutors (even one who was a SLP), reaching out to her Pediatrician for help, and also going to several ophthalmologist visits - we were at a loss. Our lives were forever changed after hearing about LKA, and I can only hope that other families find out about all of the wonderful aspects to attending LKA!
