A Note From the Principal

Hello From Mr. Sall

What a blessing it is to listen to God’s call on my life (and the lives on my family) as the next principal of Ada Christian School and land in this amazingly supportive community!

The love and support from people in the office, the board members, and even getting to meet some staff members as well as some parents/community members has already been a blessing! While I know I have a lot to learn, I also know that I am well supported.

What is even more rewarding is that my family gets to be involved in this journey!

So, you get to see a “normal” picture and a bit of a crazy picture, but with 5 of our own children (4 boys and a girl), a daughter-in-law, and our second son dating the gal on the far right, we like to have fun and enjoy life. We also hold each other up in prayer and learn how to function together as our family grows.

We are excited to serve the Ada community!

Supply List 

Check out the K-8 Supply List and plan for Aug 24!

August Letter

During the first week of August you can expect to receive a packet in the mail with our August Back-to-School Letter. In this packet you will find class lists and various details for the start of the school year. If your address has changed over the summer please with updated information. 

Summer Covenant Care

Our Summer Covenant Care students have been learning about a different theme each week. Here they learned about stained windows and made their own chalk version - beautiful!

We Are Growing!

Throughout the summer we continue to give many tours and families continue to enroll. To accommodate the growth in our 2nd grade, our education committee and administration have approved a fourth 2nd grade class, keeping with our commitment to small class sizes. Class lists will be announced in early August via mail. 

    Expected COVID Protocols

    We have confidence that the upcoming school year will look and feel very close to a normal school year. Here is what we anticipate:

    • A full year of in-person learning.
    • Keep children with cold/flu symptoms home.
    • No daily symptom screener.
    • No school required quarantines.
    • No mask requirements.
    • No off-campus learning program.
    • Large classrooms and small class sizes allow us to distance students as necessary.

    Summer Projects on Campus

    New Audio/Video in the Commons - It was time to update our projection system in anticipation of having Gathering Time and MS Chapel in the Commons this coming year. 

    General cleaning and Maintenance - Summer cleaning is underway. 

    New Roof - Starting next week crews will be replacing our 20 year old roof on the North Gym. 

    Resurfacing - Beginning July 12 - July 30 various portions of the ACS drive and parking lot will be closed for paving. Please do not drive in areas that are block off. 

    Updated HVAC - Our 20 year old boilers have been increasingly more unreliable over the last few years. New Boilers and controls are currently being installed.   

    Summer Farmers Market

    Stop by our weekly Farmers Market on Wednesday's from 12:00-12:30pm for fresh veggies and beautiful flowers.

    Employment Opportunities

    We are looking for quality candidates or the following positions:

    • Secretary
    • Social Worker
    • Preschool Aide

    Host Families Needed

    We will be welcoming several new families to ACS come fall. Would you consider being a host family for the upcoming school year? As a host family you will introduce yourself to an assigned family that has a child entering the same grade as yours. We encourage you to welcome them and serve as a resource for them.
