August 15, 2007: New Year has begun! (photos)

Alethia Academy began its fourth school year on August 15th. We were excited to welcome new students, teachers, and families to our community of families who desire an environment in which children love to learn and where they encounter Christ in all that is true, good, and beautiful. Praise the Lord for all his provisions!

February 22, 2007: Grandparents Day (photos)

Rincon Mountain Presbyterian Church graciously hosted the grandparents and students and teachers of Alethia Academy on Wednesday, February 22, 2007.

This was the second First Annual Grandparents Day, as the first was canceled due to an unusual ice and snow storm in Tucson two weeks ago.
We were in all about forty in attendance. An excellent breakfast prepared by Betsy Dunlap and Melissa Hamilton. Signs by Betsy also graced the tables. As the grandparents and children ate and fellowshipped together, the sense of thanks and gratitude was evident. Dr. Askew, our invited speaker and ex officio member of the board at Alethia, spoke passionately about why Alethia
Academy is important and how we are laying the groundwork, if it is necessary, for hundreds of years to come. We should not "despise the day of small things" but by faith continue to build for the future. He also asked the people in attendance to consider supporting the school financially in these early years.

Following the presentation by Dr. Askew, those in attendance were treated to presentations from each class, samples of their in-class studies, and preparations (to great effect). The Kindergarteners were really cute. Ryan Reilly
translated a paragraph of Latin to the amazement of all. The grandparents were invited to the Kindergarten classroom after the presentations to see their special work which could not be brought up to the auditorium.

A round of applause was offered for the teachers as one of the grandparents, Bob Reilly, stood and gave a moving testimony of thanks for all the hard work and sacrifice that is being given. "The results show," he said.

Please join us in giving thanks to God for His blessing on our school and pray that, indeed, the finances necessary to both finish the year and to be on firm footing for the coming years will be provided by our Generous God!

February 2007: Sabino Canyon (photos)

Alethia took a field trip to Sabino Canyon. It was a beatutiful day for a hike! We took the tram into the canyon and hiked back. Mr. Richards' class was on the lookout for birds that they have been studying in school. It was a great day.
