Thanks to all students and families for the participation in the “Change Wars” Fundraiser!  The K-2nd grade team won the final week (quarters).  The 6th-7th team won the other three weeks (pennies, nickels, dimes). OVER $800 WAS RAISED!!! What a great fundraiser!!!


From the Principal's Desk

It is a blessing to serve and work alongside all of you in this ministry at Christian Life Academy!  October is a special month for me each year.  Some may think it’s because of my birthday (and sure, that’s part of it).  But ever since 2007, October has always brought amazing blessings to Christian Life Academy.  You see, October 2007 is kind of the “birth month” of Christian Life Academy for me.  It’s the month when I first met with individuals wanting to start a school here in Hopedale.  It’s also, most years, the month of LIFE DAYS, when we celebrate the life of the school and God’s provision.  Harvest time only helps to remind me of the blessings we have been afforded.  So when October rolls around, It’s just a special time for CLA.  I look forward to sharing this time with many of you during Life Days 2021!

Blessings,

        Mr. Horning
