Wow - what an afternoon with the weather!
Wednesday afternoon this week was quite an experience! We are thankful for the protection of our buildings, for God’s sovereignty in keeping us safe during the weather, and for all the good communication among all of our school community to ensure all students and staff were safe! Springtime in the midwest can be exciting and scary! Let’s continue to always pray for God’s protection.
Invite someone to visit Christian Life Academy…
While we do not have any more scheduled open house events, you are always encouraged to share your CLA experience with others and to invite them to visit. Mr. Horning and other staff are always glad to host friends or family. Share the word!
2025-2026 Registration and Enrollment information!
Enrollment for the new school year is open! We have a new process where our full-time academic families can enroll and re-enroll online through the Gradelink “EnrollMe” feature on our SIS. We encourage early enrollment (by March 31 with a discounted registration fee). It greatly helps us to plan for 2025-2026. Families that are participating in extracurricular activities only, you may use the re-enrollment link sent previously. Any questions, please contact Mr. Horning ([email protected]).
Girls Softball Clinic days coming up in April!
To explore the possibilities of girls softball at CLA, a series of clinics will be held in April. They will be after school on April 2, 9, 16 and 22 on ball diamond #1 (located directly behind the CLA grade school building). This is for players in grades 5-12, with any level of experience! There is no cost, but an option to purchase a t-shirt is available. For more information or to sign up, contact Rachel Birkey ([email protected]) or Holly Murphy ([email protected]) or click this link: https://forms.gle/Hm6fVDcdQFAdTKTVA

From the Principal's Desk
Enjoy Spring Break! Next week we will have some time away from the regular school week. Some will take some trips, or sleep in, or do activities much differently than a normal routine. But even in the “outside the norm” times, we wish to be guided by the Holy Spirit and walk in the ways of the Lord! I’ll be excited to see everyone back in the regular routine on Monday, March 31… but in the meantime, enjoy the break and preparation for the “last leg” of the school year!
“I have no greater joy than to know that my children are walking in the truth.” 3 John 4
