Congratulation Ms. Brooke and Ms. Avion

 As we step into the new year, we’re filled with even more excitement and joy than usual. Our school family has grown, and it’s all thanks to the arrival of two beautiful baby girls—children of our beloved staff members, Brooke and Avion. We couldn’t be happier to welcome these little ones into our school community, and we’re thrilled to see the positive energy they bring to our halls, even in their earliest days.

Best of Music City

We are thrilled to share some incredibly exciting news with all our families, friends, and supporters—our preschool has been named Best of Music City for the second year in a row!

This prestigious award is a testament to the hard work, dedication, and love that we pour into our classrooms each and every day. Winning this honor for two years straight is truly a reflection of the amazing community we've built together, and we couldn't be more grateful.

Christmas Carols

 The holiday season is a time for joy, togetherness, and, of course, music! This year, our preschoolers embraced the spirit of Christmas in a fun and heartwarming way—by going Christmas caroling and sharing their festive performances with each other. The event was a wonderful blend of creativity, laughter, and festive cheer that left everyone smiling from ear to ear. Here’s a look back at this memorable day!

Team Santa or Team Grinch

 You know Santa—jolly, giving, and the star of the Christmas season. And then there’s the Grinch—mischievous, but with a heart of gold by the end of his story. Both characters are loved by kids, and they make perfect mascots for a holiday rivalry that can spark excitement in the classroom (or at home). Plus, there’s something so magical about kids choosing a side, getting into character, and celebrating the holiday season with joy and laughter.

Oh' Christmas Tree

 It’s that magical time of year again—Christmas is here, and our school is bursting with holiday cheer! This year, we embraced the holiday spirit in a creative way by inviting our students to craft their very own ornaments to decorate the school Christmas tree.

From glittering stars to colorful snowflakes, each ornament was a unique masterpiece, reflecting the imagination and creativity of our young artists. The project not only gave the kids a chance to showcase their talents, but it also helped to build a sense of community as we all gathered together to bring a touch of festive joy to our school.

The excitement was contagious as our students carefully designed and crafted their ornaments. Some chose traditional designs, while others let their creativity run wild with fun and quirky shapes. 

As the ornaments began to fill the tree, it became a beautiful tapestry of colorful decorations, each representing the spirit of the season and the individuality of our students. Seeing the kids’ faces light up as they admired their work hanging on the tree was a moment that truly captured the essence of Christmas—joy, creativity, and togetherness.

This activity was a great reminder of the simple joys that come with the holiday season. We’re so proud of our students for bringing their creativity to life, and we can't wait to see the Christmas tree glow with the magic they’ve added.

Wishing everyone a wonderful and festive holiday season!

Adopt a Thanksgiving Dinner

 At The Academy, we believe that the true spirit of Thanksgiving is not just about giving thanks for what we have, but also about sharing our blessings with others. 

This year, our school community came together in a beautiful way to spread kindness and generosity. Through our Thanksgiving Dinner Boxes, we were able to prepare and deliver 12 Thanksgiving meal boxes for families in need, ensuring that everyone could enjoy a warm, festive meal this holiday season.

As we reflect on the success of this Thanksgiving Box Initiative, we are filled with gratitude for the support of our school family. The generosity and enthusiasm of everyone involved made this project a true celebration of community. It also serves as a reminder that giving back is not just a one-time event, but a way of life that we can continue to practice year-round.

We are proud of what we’ve accomplished together, and we look forward to more opportunities to serve and support those in need. After all, the greatest gift we can give is the gift of love and kindness.

Happy Thanksgiving from our school family to yours!

Fanny's Big Foot obstacle course

 The Frog Street Curriculum, known for its developmentally appropriate approach, encourages hands-on, interactive learning in a playful and supportive environment. By integrating the obstacle course into our daily routine, we aim to enhance key developmental areas such as fine and gross motor skills, social-emotional growth, and cognitive learning, all in one action-packed experience.

Fanny, our friendly classroom frog, is the perfect guide for our young learners. As a part of the curriculum, Fanny represents the qualities of curiosity, kindness, and exploration. Through Fanny’s character, children are encouraged to take risks, make discoveries, and approach challenges with confidence—traits that are all put to the test in our obstacle course!
