Dear NDAA Family,

As we celebrate Black History Month, we recognize the invaluable contributions of Black leaders who have shaped education, faith, and society. In the words of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., "The function of education is to teach one to think intensively and to think critically. Intelligence plus character—that is the goal of true education." May we continue to instill both wisdom and integrity in our students, helping them grow in knowledge, faith, and love.

God’s love continues to inspire us to provide our students with the best education—one that prepares them for both this life and eternity. As Ellen G. White reminds us:

"Through the acquaintance of the soul with Christ, through an acceptance of His wisdom as the guide, His power as the strength, of heart and life. This union formed; the student has found the Source of wisdom. He has within his reach the power to realize in himself his noblest ideals. The opportunities of the highest education for life in this world are his. And in the training here gained, he is entering upon that course which embraces eternity." (Education, p. 30)

We are grateful for each member of our NDAA community, and we pray that God continues to bless our students, families, and staff. May His love guide us in all that we do!

With gratitude,

Save the date! Our National Honor Society Ceremony is scheduled for February 19, 2025. Parent notifications regarding the induction of students into the National Honor Society will be sent out.

Thank you for participating in Week of Prayer! It was truly a blessing to see each of you come together in worship, lifting praises to God and reflecting on how we can build a firm foundation in Him.

This week was filled with inspiring messages, heartfelt prayers, and powerful reminders of God’s love and guidance in our lives. May we continue to grow in faith and trust in Him each day.

Keep seeking Him, and He will always lead the way!

On behalf of NDAA, we sincerely thank you for visiting our school and sharing your incredible work with our students. They had a wonderful time learning about how ACS serves those in need, and they were truly inspired by the impact of your mission.

The students especially loved assembling the care packets, knowing that their efforts would help others in meaningful ways. Your visit was a blessing, and we appreciate the opportunity to partner with you in spreading kindness and compassion.

Thank you for all that you do! We look forward to working with you again in the future.

On behalf of NDAA, I want to extend our heartfelt gratitude for taking the time to come and pray for our students during Week of Prayer. Your presence and prayers were a true blessing, and it was wonderful to see students and pastors from our supporting churches come together in faith and fellowship.

Thank you for your dedication to our students and our school community. We appreciate you and look forward to welcoming you again soon!
