Early Bird Registration Is Now Open!
You should have received an email yesterday (Subject: EJA Enrollment 2022-2023) with detailed instructions on how to enroll for the 2022-2023 school year.

A reminder that we have transitioned to an online enrollment system through the FACTS Family Portal.
We are also offering a discount for enrolling early. If you register by June 30th, you will receive 50% off the registration fee, so its a great idea to enroll now and save!

Coin Wars for ADRA (Fundraising Drive)
Our last outreach project of the year will be to collect loose change for the Adventist Disaster and Relief Agency (ADRA). ADRA is our church's humanitarian organization. They deliver relief and development assistance to individuals in more than 118 countries. We will be raising money to support ADRA’s current relief efforts in Ukraine and around the world. From now until the last day of school, students can bring in any extra pennies, dimes, nickels, quarters, and yes, even dollars that they find laying around and add it to their class' donation bin. The class that raises the most money will receive a prize! To learn more about ADRA's impact, check out their website, click here

School Picture Day
We will have a professional photographer coming in to take class and individual photos of the students during the week of May 23-27. We wanted to give you a heads up, so that students will be ready for their photos and "dressed to impress" on that day. Photos will be available for purchase, we will send more information and order forms soon.
