Action Needed
2020-2021 Enrollment Opens Mar 31
It is almost time to re-enroll your students for the 21-22 school year! On Wednesday, Mar 31 you will receive an email with detailed instructions on how to enroll. We will also include enrollment information in the Ada Connection next week. Please make sure that you have access to your PowerSchool account prior to enrollment. PowerSchool works best when accessed from a laptop/desktop rather than a mobile device.

Autism Awareness Day
Autism Awareness Day is celebrated on Apr 02 each year. Autism Spectrum Disorder is a developmental disorder characterized by behavioral and communicational affections that impact a person’s ability to navigate social interactions and also causes repetitive and restricted behaviors. People around the world will Light It Up Blue to raise awareness for all the people living with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Ada Christian School will be celebrating on Thursday, Apr 01. Everyone is encouraged to wear something blue in support of understanding and accepting people with autism.
Emergency Drills
Over the past week we reviewed several of our emergency drills including fire, tornado and safety. We are grateful that students and staff performed these in a timely manner.
Annual Society Meeting
The time is fast approaching for our Annual Society Meeting. This annual meeting is where the members of the Ada Christian School Society (faculty, staff and parents of children in grades K-8) gather (digitally) to formally vote to approve the school's budget for the 2021-22 school year and elect new members to the Board.
We'll also take time to distribute Staff Service awards and to hear reports from the Principal, the Director of Advancement, and the Board. A link to a prerecorded video of the meeting will be send out on Mar 30.
