Thanks!

Dear Parents and Guardians,

As we come to the very last day of this school year, we the Administration, faculty, and staff of Glendale Adventist Academy would like to extend our profound gratitude, applause, and best wishes to you all for your unflinching support for the school during the most trying months of this school year. Covid-19 changed the way we did school, and you stood right beside us as we tried hard to navigate those stormy waters. Our students, your children or wards, also cooperated with the system and made it possible to get to this side of the story. We made it!

Due to CDC guidelines for schools regarding physical distancing to prevent the spread of Covid-19, we are developing a strategy that will be unfolded for implementation for the 2020/2021 school year. We are in the process of cost analysis and planning, and we will be sharing more details with you within the next few weeks.

Kindly mark Tuesday, August 18, on your calendar. That is our first day back to school for the 2020/2021 school year. It promises to be a grand opening after being gone for so long. We are counting on your continued support in recruiting new students and families to join the ranks of our elementary and high school programs.

Once again thank you for all your support and prayers. We wish you a pleasant and enjoyable summer break.

Blessings,

$23,700 Raised in Two Weeks - 38 Students Receive Financial Aid to Stay in School

Dear Friend,

When the clarion call went out two weeks ago to assist families that have been impacted by Covid 19, you rose up to the occasion and gave. As we speak, 38 students who experienced one form of hardship or another have been able to receive some tuition assistance from the proceeds of the fundraiser. Thank you for your generous and sacrificial giving. One teacher donated the $1,200 stimulus package check to assist families in need. Other teachers and non-teaching staff members also gave generously. One parent donated two months of tuition payments in the amount of $1,200 to assist a needy student in their child’s classroom without knowing who in particular they were assisting. Another parent offered to give time to help the school take care of anything we needed to be done. Many of our alumni gave through the school website donation portal to support the cause. Friends of Glendale Adventist Academy came to our rescue. Everyone gave what they could to make it happen.

So where do we go from here? We are working on our plans for the next school year. Things will definitely be different from the way they are now. Physical distancing will continue and so will safe hygienic practices for the school as a whole. The wearing of face masks and temperature taking will become routine and class sizes will be reduced. We will keep you informed as plans develop.

Thank you for your consistent support for quality, Christ-centered education here at Glendale Adventist Academy where we put Christ in the hearts of our students. We appreciate you for partnering with us to make that an everyday reality.

Our God has promised to watch over us when we go through the fires of life or through stormy waters. Keep on trusting Him and keep on believing His word. We will survive these times and have reasons to celebrate on the other side. May God bless you richly.

Blessings.
