Our school is the only selective enrollment high school located in the Englewood community. We currently enroll 97% of students in post-secondary institutions with a 92% persistence rate, the highest rate in Chicago Public Schools. Once a year we recognize all students for an all-school assembly and distribute certificates to recognize students, however, there is nothing left behind to display to future students for inspiration. While we have such a strong college-going culture at LMSA, we want to recognize the most competitive and highly selective institutions with individual college flags. The goal is to display the college flags around the junior and senior hallways to inspire all students to reach their full potential to eventually attend one of those selective institutions. In addition, LMSA will continue the legacy of excellence by establishing a tradition of adding new college flags once students enroll at new post-secondary institutions. We ultimately want to recognize the hard work of all of our students.
