I have been impressed with this school since day one of enrolling. My daughters and I hadn't even planned on enrolling anywhere that day, we were simply considering our options. Right away, my kids loved everything about the school (from the dance and performance specials to the half-days on Wednesdays). Even the uniforms grew on them and they liked the way they looked wearing them. The staff did everything they could to accommodate us in so many ways, and the teachers actually seem to enjoy their work! When my daughter had missed a couple of days of school, her teacher was so kind as to call and personally see how she was doing. Their attentiveness and dedication to these kiddos is unparalleled to anything I've ever seen (having scoured the better schools in AZ). I was so sad to have to leave this school due to an unexpected move, and so were each of my kids. LFPA Warner should definitely be your first stop for kindergarten through 6th if you live anywhere within the area.

I have 2 girls: my oldest started at the school since first grade. She has now graduated, my second started in kindergarten and is now a 5th grader. I couldn't be happier with our decision. I won't lie the first two years I was going to leave due to all the staff change. Now since Art and Kara took over, I couldn't been happier. I feel like we are family at the school not just a school, if that makes any seance. I would recommend this school hands down. The staff is friendly and nice again always making the kiddos feel loved and at home.

My daughter started first grade at LFPA and is currently in 6th grade. This school has been a godsend for her, and I was elated when I found a performing arts school so close to our home. LFPA is perfect for students who think outside of the box and live a curious lifestyle. Aside from having an amazing student-centered education plan, they also focus heavily on STEAM based learning as well as the performing arts. They recognize that it's not just what a student can learn in books, but what they can learn from the arts. Each day, the students engage in specials focusing on Music, Keyboard, Musical Theatre, Art and Dance. The students have opportunities to learn guitar, piano, the recorder as well as many music and theatre theories. The art teacher is amazing, and teaches many mediums, opening the students up to new creative opportunities. Students also have access to their own Chrome Books where they are able to explore and learn through technology. Students are given the opportunity to audition for two main musical productions each year, they have Fall and Spring talent shows as well as Winter and Spring Showcases where students are able to express themselves creatively. LFPA also understands that they must focus on the whole-child, utilizing the 7 Healthy Habits to ensure students grow socially and academically. LFPA is a wonderful school, full of amazing and caring teachers along with some of the best support staff I have ever encountered. Everyone there wants to be there, and they truly care for each student. The Principal and Vice Principal are heavily involved in the day-to-day activities and running of the school, and they know and greet each student by name everyday. They have created such a wonderful and positive environment where I feel happy and excited to bring my daughter to everyday. I can not sing their praises enough. I am so happy that while this will be my daughter's last year at their Warner campus, that she will be able to transition to their Gilbert campus (right across the street), to continue 7th-12th grades and become a future LFPA Graduate!

My children go to LFPA Warner and they love it. The teachers are caring and respectful and they motivate the kids to do well. I love that that they learn leadership principles starting in pre-k. I also really appreciate that they teach the kids about public speaking very early on. This school has also really helped my youngest come out of her shell.

I absolutely love this school. When I was choosing a school for my son, I was very picky because I wanted to make sure that he attended a place where he not only would receive an amazing education, but where the school would actually care about their students. They are on top of it if he needs help with anything at all,and I couldn't be happier with the staff. If a family needs any help, they pull together and provide the best support. He is in his last 2 years of school before he hits junior high and we are already sad that he won't be attending LFPA anymore. We've become such great friends with most of the teachers and the front desk staff. The principal and vice principal care deeply about the kids. Great environment and great leadership.
