As Muslims around the world prepare for their special invitation from Allah to perform Hajj, students at LUA participated in a meaningful Hajj simulation experience. Through this hands-on activity, they learned the important steps and rituals of Hajj while deepening their understanding of this sacred journey.
A special thank you to the ISAQ Department and our 8th grade students for organizing and leading the simulation!
As we head into the final stretch of the school year, our students are continuing to work hard through testing season and finishing strong! 📚✏️
This week, our hallways have been filled with motivational posters and encouraging messages to help inspire confidence, perseverance, and positivity during testing. From reminders to “Do Your Best” to “Believe in Yourself,” these small messages are helping create a supportive atmosphere for all of our students.

What a perfect week to reflect and show appreciation for teachers. During Teacher Appreciation, we celebrate all our educators and take pride in those preparing to become future teachers.
We had the opportunity to explore a meaningful partnership between Henry Clay High School’s Teaching and Learning Pathway and Junior Achievement, highlighted by Junior Achievement Day at LUA. High school students planned and led a fun-filled day of lessons and activities, creating an engaging and memorable experience for our students.
