On Wednesday and Thursday, we welcomed our largest group of middle and high school students yet and our hearts are full. At GAA, we create a space where every child feels safe, seen, and valued from day one.

Through honest discussions about respect, fun icebreakers, and team-building games, students quickly turn strangers into friends while learning to work together and support each other.

We also address real challenges like anxiety by practicing practical tools like grounding techniques, helping students build the emotional skills they need to thrive.

At GAA, we believe every child can become a successful, confident, and bold leader with the right environment, guidance, and encouragement.

Earlier this week, GAA welcomed back our K-5 students with activities that nurtured both mind and heart, from affirmations to breathing exercises and recognizing emotions. As we work to close learning gaps and build confidence, weโ€™re also making mental health a priority so every child knows that achievement matters, and so does caring for who they are inside and out.

Please join our family group GAA Family for more information and answered questions.

Good evening GAA parents! We hope you all had an incredible summer and are as excited as we are for the upcoming school year. Tomorrow, August 4, marks the start of our staggered entry for Elementary students (grades K-5), and we can't wait to see their smiling faces!

School doors will open at 7:45 am, and while parents will not be able to enter the building, you can walk your student right up to the door. We kindly ask that if you have any questions, you wait until after drop-off to reach out. The school phone will be available after 8:00 am.

Looking ahead, Middle and High School students will kick off their staggered entry on August 6, Wednesday. We are excited to welcome them back as well!

Here's a quick reminder of the staggered entry schedule:
- Monday and Tuesday: Elementary students
- Wednesday and Thursday: Middle and High School students

School hours are from 7:45 am to 3:15 pm, and please note that there will be no early pick-up after 2:30 pm.

We look forward to an amazing school year filled with new experiences and opportunities!

Countdown to our 2025 Commencement Ceremony ๐ŸŽ“๐ŸŽ“๐ŸŽ“

Senior Spotlight: Jalen Ruffin

Jalen Ruffin joined the Great Accomplishments Academy family in the 1st grade. From the very beginning, his motherโ€™s protective and loving presence served as a powerful reminder of the sacred trust families place in our school. She sought a space where Jalen could thrive academically while also feeling safe, valued, and deeply cared for.

Throughout the years, Jalen has faced and overcome many challenges, growing into a confident, capable young man. His progressโ€”both socially and academicallyโ€”has been remarkable, and his journey is a true testament to perseverance and love.

Thank you, Ms. Nicole, for entrusting us with Jalenโ€™s education and growth. We are honored to have been part of his story and will miss him dearly as he embarks on this next chapter.

๐ŸŒŸ Did you know that one woman's vision transformed the educational landscape for children with autism and ADHD in North Carolina? ๐ŸŒŸ

Today, we celebrate the incredible journey of our founder, Tonya Clark Blackmond, as we honor her birthday and reflect on the rich legacy of Black History. โค๏ธ

As a pioneer, Mrs. Tonya created a safe, nurturing, and empowering space for students with autism and ADHD, ensuring they felt seen and valued while receiving an education tailored to their unique needs. Inspired by her mother, Regina White Clark, she embarked on a mission to create a nurturing environment for at-risk youth. With just a handful of students in her motherโ€™s church, she laid the foundation for Great Accomplishments Academy (GAA). Fast forward, and GAA has positively impacted over 100 students and celebrated three graduating classes! ๐ŸŽ“

Her passion and dedication continue to inspire not just our students but the entire community. Happy Birthday, Mrs. Tonya! May your legacy thrive and inspire many more! ๐ŸŽ‰

Letโ€™s take a moment to honor this remarkable journey. ๐Ÿ’ญ
