Dear Academy Families and Friends,
Winter is back with a blast. Looks like the week leading up to the February break is going to be a snowy one! Please remember to give yourself extra time when accessing the campus as well as respecting the parking signs on Candia and Sutton Street. We have a lot of students that walk to and from school each day, so please drive slow and safely as you approach the school.
