ACA Succeeds with
Virtual Learning
Helping students successfully manage a
new environment is easier when they are
already familiar with the tools. Since Ala-
bama Christian Academy has been a 1:1
school for more than 10 years, our students
did not skip a beat when ACA began virtual
school for all students, K3-12, this spring.
Teachers, parents and administrators
jumped right in to keep students engaged
and learn-
ing. Using
the Google
Classroom
platform,
students
utilize
different
digital tools
to com-
municate
with their
teachers.
In addition to video and e-mail, ACA faculty
utilized Google Meet to touch base with
and even instruct in a real time environ-
ment. Even our elementary students are
able to continue in this virtual environment.
Using Class Dojo, See Saw and other
digital tools, teachers are able to continue
providing a Christian worldview education
for our students. Staying connected, the
ACA community is still thriving.
Churchill Holds Social
Distancing Egg Hunt
Churchill Academy’s High School
Student Council created a schoolwide
Easter egg hunt while incorporating CDC
safety guidelines such as social distanc-
ing. Students from Classrooms A through
High School were asked to decorate their
yards with Easter decorations that were
visible from the street. Families were pro-
vided with a general map of participating
neighborhoods, and April 10, 2020, served
as the
inaugural
Churchill
Academy
Easter Egg
Hunt.
Fami-
lies drove
around
to search
for Easter
decor from
their cars. Parents drove and student
passengers were asked to take pictures of
their finds, posting them on social network
sites with #ChurchillAcademyEasterEg-
gHunt. The hunt was a tremendous suc-
cess! Thank you, Student Council!
