The 2020 Kansas City Metro Area and Greater Missouri Art Region Scholastic awards were released 2/7/20 and LNHS students fared very well. Scholastic received 1600 entries from the KC metro area. Of those selected 124 Gold Keys, 150 Silver Keys, and 205 Honorable Mentions were awarded. These totals represent only 36% of all submissions.

Work receiving a Gold Key proceeds to the National Scholastic office to be judged with all of the other Gold Key work from all of the other regions of the country.

Additionally, Gold Key artwork will be part of a regional exhibition and their creators will be invited to a ceremony at the KCAI Crossroads Gallery: Center for Contemporary Practice on Saturday, March 28, 2020.

Receiving any award from this organization among all of the work submitted is a considerable achievement.
