August 2, 2019

Hello! I want to welcome you to the 2019-2020 school year. My name is Dr. Nicole Garcia, and I am the new principal of Clay International Academy. I am looking forward to the first day of school, and our custodial staff has been working diligently to make sure our school is ready for scholars on August 15th. Phase II of construction is under way and while there is still work to be done, it's looking great! The lockers in the front of the school have been repainted, new carpet was laid throughout the first floor, the library has new ceiling tiles and lighting, and the front offices are being updated to meet the demands of the 21st Century! Please be patient as we continue to navigate construction and train the new members of our office staff who will begin next week.

Blessings,

Nicole Garcia, Ed.D
