A Message From the Principal
Dear Academy Families and Friends,
Fall is here and while we still have it, I hope you are enjoying the summer-like weather. This week we will be finishing up the Fall assessments and continuing on setting those ROAR expectations.
One of our goals is to create and foster a culture of care and community here at Academy where all students feel loved and valued. We want students and staff to love coming to school each and every day. Each month we recognize students for all the great things they do to make Academy a great place to learn. In addition, I am happy to announce that Academy Ambassador applications will be coming out tomorrow for our 4th and 5th grade students to apply.
Mr. Higgins
