ST. LOUIS — Ladue Schools announced it is launching the Ladue Schools Online Academy(LOA) beginning with the 2021-22 school year.
When the district returns to its regular five-day, in-person schedule in August, LOA will be offered to families who wish to remain in a virtual environment.
Ladue isn't the first St. Louis-area district to offer a choice between virtual and in-person school. Last month the Rockwood School District gave students and families a similar option, asking for a decision whether they preferred in-person or virtual learning.
