Open House Dates… February 23, February 27 and March 7… Invite friends to visit!
Re-enrollment forms: You can complete this form and return it to the school office and
save $50 on the initial registration fee (until spring break). Re-enroll now!
New Tuition schedules: A few minor changes have been made, although the school
board of directors continues to work hard to keep tuition prices reasonable. The biggest
change is a small percentage adjustment in our multi-student family discounts. Any
questions, please check in with Mr. Horning

Lions Football Club - a new venture in athletics available to CLA high school boys
You may have seen this information in a recent email or facebook post, but CLA is sponsoring a potential Football Club for high school boys that don’t have access to football (homeschool students and students at schools without football). An informational meeting is scheduled for Monday, February 13 at 4 pm in the CLA gym. Feel free to pass the word around!
A link to RSVP for the informational meeting is: https://forms.gle/icLC43oBLjGXJQheA
First of the year Donations… and CAT / State Farm matching opportunities
January is a great time to support Christian Life Academy! You may have already seen our mailer from December, but this is just a reminder… If you or others you know are looking for a ministry to support, CLA would be grateful for your support. Tuition pays less than ⅔ of expenses, so we rely on donations. If you have questions, please check with Mr. Horning. Also, if you or others you know are Caterpillar or State Farm employees (or retirees), you may want to let them know that both companies have a program for donations to CLA being matched as a 501(c)3 non-profit! The CLA office may be able to help.
From the Principal's Desk
This month in chapel we have continued to discuss being ready for the “new” things that God is asking us to do. We remembered the Bible accounts of Gideon and David, and how God used someone for a mighty work who might have seen themselves as small or insignificant. Do you believe that God wants to do mighty works through you? God can do immeasurable things! Let’s all, together, consider the work He’s doing, and jump in with both feet. I am so grateful for the many people that I’ve had the opportunity to work with in ministry. YOU are one of them!
Blessings!
Mr. Horning
