The View from Blue
Be The Difference We Cause Learning
Mr. Allen's Avenue
Blue Academy Families:
Happy Summer Break! This will serve as our last parent newsletter for the 2023-2024 school year. I am very proud of everything that we have accomplished this school year! Blue Academy is truly a special place for kids. :)
On a personal note, I have to share that I will not be returning to Blue Academy next school year. I have accepted a principal position in the district where my children attend school. This will allow me to be home much more to support, and be with my four children and wife.
I truly love Blue Academy and this is very bittersweet for me. Serving as the Blue Academy Principal has been an honor; and I want to thank you all for your support, partnership and words of encouragement the last four years.
From all of us here at Blue Academy, we hope you have a safe, relaxing and enjoyable summer.
Please let your children know....as I say on the announcements each morning. If someone hasn't told you they love you today, Mr. Allen loves you. :)
Have a wonderful summer break.
Mr. Adam C. Allen
Principal, DELC: Blue Academy
