You Chose to Send Your Child to a Charter School ...

As you know, Littleton Academy is a Charter school.  With the many benefits that a Charter school education provides comes the obligation that Charter schools require more volunteer hours and more direct fundraising  support to operate. Each year LASA distributes more than $75K to the Littleton Academy community through various events, school program sponsorship, and teacher development. None of this would be possible without the generous support of our parents, extended families, community, and corporate sponsors. That means YOU! 

Fundraiser Facts

We do one major fundraiser every fall (FunRun, Read4Funds, Glow Dance, etc) but we would not have to do a fundraiser at all, EVER, if each family gave the suggested amount each year to the Family Giving Campaign. Think about it.......

Family Giving Campaign

Throughout the school year, LASA offers various donation and contribution opportunities, but the single greatest way to help LASA make a positive impact for our school is by contributing to the Family Giving Campaign. These funds go directly to the school to support the students, teachers, and staff. LASA offers a one-time donation option as well as a monthly recurring donation option for a 10 month duration. The Family Giving Campaing is open for donations all school year. 

One-Time Donation Option

Every family is encouraged at the start of the school  year to contribute a one-time donation of $200 for one student, $250 for families with two students, and $275 for families with three or more students currently enrolled at Littleton Academy.   Give To LASA

Monthly Recurring Donation Option

Don't want to pay all at once? We offer the option of a smaller, recurring payment for 10 months. Every family is encouraged to set up a recurring payment for the duration of the academic school year (10 months) of $20 per month for one student, $25 per month for families with two students, and $27.50 per month for families with three or more students currently enrolled at Littleton Academy.   Give To LASA

Volunteer Hours Buy-Out

Families of Littleton Academy are required to volunteer a minimum 20 hours each year. For various opportunities, check out the Volunteer page and sign up today. Volunteering is a great way to make a positive impact at LA and in your student(s) classroom(s). Grandparents can log volunteer hours for your family too! Students love to see their parents and grandparents at school! 

As volunteers ourselves, LASA understands that not everyone can make or meet this commitment. Families who are unable to meet their volunteer obligation for any reason may BUY-OUT their minimum requirement right from the beginning of the year, or complete the balance of hours remaining throughout the year -all for $20 per hour.

We love our teachers!

School funding in Colorado is less than the national average and LPS funding is less than the average in Colorado.  In fact, Littleton Academy's teachers are compensated at approximately 90% of the rates negotiated by the LPS teachers' union.  

A huge part of the money we raise goes towards teachers so Littleton Academy can attract and retain the best teachers possible.   We do our best to supplement teacher pay with an annual bonus so that we keep our excellent teachers! We also finance teacher professional development, to help allow our teachers to go to conferences and seminars where they can learn and bring back the latest and greatest educational techniques.  It's a way to show appreciation for our teachers. When teachers grow, students grow!
