Become LUOA’s FIRST EVER Valedictorian and Salutatorian
Are you a current Senior? Starting THIS year, LUOA is selecting two students to represent LUOA as our school’s FIRST EVER Valedictorian and Salutatorian!
In keeping with our mission to train students to become Christ-centered men and women with the values, knowledge, and skills essential to impact the world — we are selecting two students who excel in 5 Key Areas that we believe make up the whole student to represent LUOA as Valedictorian and Salutatorian:
- Academics
- Spiritual Growth and Maturity
- Community Service Involvement
- School Involvement (Extracurricular Activities)
- Commitment to the Vision and Mission of LUOA
The Valedictorian and Salutatorian will have an opportunity to address the LUOA Senior Class as a part of May 2023’s Commencement Activities and will receive an award and recognition as a part of the ceremony!

Community Service Award
The Leadership and the Administration of LUOA will select Students each academic year who have shown excellence in Community Service to highlight the impact they have made through Community Service. As a part of May 2023’s Commencement Activities, each student will receive an award and recognition and we will share their work via video.
