Annual Giving Campaign is Underway
Dear BA Community Member,
Brevard Academy’s Mission is to help students achieve academic excellence, create citizens with strong moral character and active intellectual inquiry through a partnership with parents, teachers and students. Our Vision is to develop and encourage motivated, intellectually curious students who are skilled in critical thinking, individual expression and problem-solving. From their diverse backgrounds, students accept our challenge to pursue personal and academic excellence. Through this pursuit, they become confident members of their community who lead by serving others.
Our Mission and Vision drive every decision we make.
Together with your donations we have been able to increase our AIG programs, add a full time school counselor, additional bus routes, amazing field trips with the support of our PTO, add a SRO, increase our staff for individual education plans, add hot lunch service, support the Backpack Buddies so that no child goes hungry, add intramural sports, STEM lessons, support our Music and Art program, begun the development of our outdoor space, and more……..
The Power of YOUR Support!
You can help us continue these important initiatives and to do even more! Please consider giving a financial gift to our Annual Give Campaign.
Sincerely,
Julie Gaston

Lunch at Brevard Academy
Lunch Orders
All lunch orders, including pizza, can now be placed through Foodease. Please remember that after you load money onto your account, you must select the days your child will eat. You can also use the daily option as long as your order is in by 8:30 am.
For more information, click here.
Lunch orders for the entire month are posted on our website. Remember that every Monday is Jet's Pizza Day.
Parents if you are getting a message from FoodEase, "staff has edited student's account," this message was sent for one of two reasons. The first is we are adding student grade and homeroom to all student accounts. The second reason is the glitch with back billing is now fixed in the system and we are now able to back bill. We are working diligently to get all the lunch charges in. Thank you for your patience, as this process may take a couple of weeks.
Feedback on our new hot lunch program and FoodEase can be sent to feedback@brevardacademy.school.

During and morning and afternoon carline, traffic congestion is becoming an increasingly problematic issue. We encourage drivers to exit right onto Glade Creek Road. The continuous flow of traffic is crucial to an efficient arrival and dismissal process.
Please consider this alternate route, when leaving the campus to ensure the safe departure of all BA families. We appreciate your cooperation in advance.
Please also remember that we are now a designated school zone. Use caution when arriving or leaving the school during drop off and pick up hours.
