Foreign Language Academy

"this school gave me another chance and i made it to high school thanks to FLA :)"

"We absolutely love it at Foreign Language Academy! Our son has been in their Spanish immersion program for the last 7 years. This school is a hidden gem in the KC Public Schools! The teachers are knowledgeable, dedicated, hard working, and caring. Dr Ramsdell and his staff are top-notch. Every adult there is vested in the children, and because there is such a low turnover rate for their students, everyone knows everyone. They utilize the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Kids "Leader in Me" program and International Baccalaureate (IB) Primary Years Program provide a well-rounded education that develops new language acquisition, accountability, and educational inquiry. Thank you FLA!"

"Wonderful facility. Awesome hard working and caring teachers. I appreciate them at a time like this when we are in quarantine. Both of my children’s teachers have reached out to check on them and that is important! It brought smiles to their faces. The only thing that I question is for the years my children have been there all I get is rudeness from the office staff. I’ve only approached them with respect. Yet, they are short and snippy. I understand everyone has bad days, but as a healthcare professional, I have bad days to but I do not take it out on my patients. Wish they would account for how they make certain parents feel sometimes. Other than that, I would recommend this school to anyone. Best KCPS school there is! Thank you FLA for your hard work and dedication to all the students! You are appreciated."

"Great staff and teachers.. before and after school program for is very helpful to the students."

"Amazing Kansas City Public School offering full immersion Spanish or Mandarin K-8, with some of the best standardized testing results in the district. Don't move out of KC for KS schools: find out how to get your kids here every morning!"
