A MESSAGE FROM JANICE VAN NESS
I am looking for parents who can help with fundraising for the football field, which we hope to finish by December 12. The total field cost is about $105,000, however, thanks to SEC and the Mr. and Mrs. Billy Campbell, our cost to finish the field will be roughly $37,500.
Although we had planned to build a field next year, we could not pass up the gracious offer to grade and prep the field by their company, SEC. They brought in over 305 loads of dirt to make sure that our “Field of Dreams” becomes a reality for the Peachtree family much sooner than we had anticipated. Not only will this be another great opportunity for our students, it will be a wonderful recruiting tool in the coming months as we begin enrolling new students for 2013-2014.
Please help us by referring any companies who may want a great tax write off by donating to our school to help build the field. Sponsorships are available to you with signage on the sports field and in the new gymnasium which will acknowledge their gracious donations.
LET'S KEEP PEACHTREE LOOKING GOOD...

Elementary Christmas Concert
Special Invitation to Peachtree Academy Families... Rediscover the true meaning of Christmas for FREE
Connexion is the church that meets for worship in our school facility once a month. This partnership has become a wonderful thing for our school and for the church. This upcoming holiday community event on December 22 is open to the public, but you have a special invitation as a Peachtree family.
It all begins with S'mores and Santa at 4:00. (Pictures with Santa are FREE.) Then at 5:30 there will be Caroling by candlelight and the presentation of the Christmas Story. Finally, at 6:15 we will have hot chocolate and go caroling in the community for those who are able. Bring your family and join in the fun for this FREE event.
REGISTER NOW FOR 2013-2014
December is upon us, a great time to look back at our accomplishments.

We encourage all current families to take advantage of the benefits of early enrollment. Complete your application and return it with a $130 check to lock-in your Loyal Panther tuition rate.
