2016-2017 Year in Photos

Music may not come “natural” for every child, but having the opportunity to explore a variety of instruments and learn to play in a band is a gift we love to offer our students. At the upper elementary level, students begin forming small worship bands and play with one another throughout the duration of the year, anticipating an increased skill level for each individual on their particular instrument.

Teachers have always been our school’s greatest resource. We are so thankful for each of our staff, who poured endlessly into students this year, believing that each child is worth developing into a capable, confident person!

These guys blew everyone away during Student Performance Night, lighting up the stage with their tribute dance! It was a powerful symbol to all who watched, of the sweetness of unity that makes room diversity. At The Academy we truly believe that each child is created with unique gifts, and there is a place for each of them.

Field Day was electric, with almost palpable energy in the air as teams vied for points to win 1st place in the overall competition! The day carried many impactful lessons, from perseverance through discouragement, to celebrating others when they did well. At the end of the day, the 1st place ‘Blue team’ were charged with the task of leading field cleanup, practicing Jesus’ teaching that the first shall be last, and that to be someone great means to be a servant to others.

we hope you enjoyed it. here's to another great year!
