History

Arkansas state level politicians promoted the idea of expanding Pinnacle View Middle School, located in the former headquarters of Leisure Arts, to the high school level. The high school was to be established in a former office building next to Pinnacle View Middle.[1]

Little Rock West opened in 2019 with the ninth grade, having 64 students, and in 2020 it had 120 students.[2] The building has a capacity of about 100 students per grade. The first 12th grade class will graduate in 2023.[3]
