A School That Grows With Your Child
In a world that is always changing, every child deserves a place where they are truly known, deeply supported, and free to discover their own genius. We aren’t just building a school; we are building a permanent Village for the families of the East End and Greater Houston. From your child's first day of Pre-K to the day they walk across the stage at graduation, we provide a stable, joyful path designed to help them thrive.
Our Promise to Your Family
Our commitment is rooted in the belief that every child deserves the best.
Learning Blueprint Community Schools ia building the East End Academy to provide three essential guarantees that will empower your child’s future:
Foundation of Stability and Support
We build a school that feels like a family. Through our Village Model, your child will be known, loved, and supported by a consistent team of mentors. We act as a community hub, connecting your family to the health and wellness resources you need so that your child feels safe, stable, and ready to learn every single day.
Unlocking Every Child’s Potential
We believe every child has a unique genius. We use Personalized Learning to meet your child exactly where they are—whether they need extra help or are ready to soar ahead. We give students the tools to track their own progress and the voice to own their learning journey.
Preparation for Real-World Success
We prepare students for life. By using the city as our classroom and weaving inquiry, the arts and design thinking into daily lessons, we teach children how to solve real problems, not just memorize answers. We cultivate the creativity, critical thinking, and teamwork that will help them succeed in high school, college, and the careers of tomorrow.
Learning Blueprint Community Schools ensures a stable, joyful, and successful path for your child.

Admissions & Enrollment: How it Works
As an open-enrollment public charter school, Learning Blueprint Community Schools and East End Academy are committed to a fair and transparent admissions process. We are tuition-free and do not require entrance exams for admission.
Do you use a lottery or a waitlist? Per Texas Education Agency (TEA) regulations, if we receive more applications than available seats for a specific grade level, we are legally required to conduct a random lottery.
The Lottery: Every applicant is entered into a neutral, third-party lottery system that randomly assigns a rank.
The Waitlist: Once all available seats are filled via the lottery, the remaining students are placed on a waitlist in the exact order determined by that same lottery draw.
Rolling Admissions: If we are not oversubscribed (meaning we have more seats than applicants), students are admitted on a first-come, first-served basis until capacity is reached.
Priority Status While the lottery is random, TEA allows for a few specific enrollment priorities:
Siblings: Priority is given to siblings of currently enrolled students to keep families together.
Founding Family/Staff Children: A small, state-capped percentage of seats is reserved for the children of the founding board and staff who are building the school.
