Indiana News

In this episode, we dive into the challenges and joys of staying connected with your child. As teens strive for independence and crave privacy, it can be tough for parents to maintain a close relationship. We’ll explore how to respect their growing need for space while still being an involved and supportive parent. Communication is often a sticking point, but we’ll share practical tips for keeping the lines of dialogue open, even when your child seems distant. Join Kevin, Scott and Aleshia as we discuss strategies to strengthen your bond and stay connected during these transformative years.

Listen here.

We’re excited to see some of our first year families this week in Indiana at our first evening session of Christian Academy Foundations. Thank you for letting us know to expect you. Plan to come a little early to shop the Armory and enjoy a 15% discount on CAI spirit wear beginning at 5:30 p.m. before our 6:30 p.m. workshop start time. 

If you have not yet chosen a session, please see the following original communication for complete details and to register.  

Welcome to Christian Academy! 

We trust your start of school went well and your introduction to your campus was positive. 

Not only may our school system be new to you but Christian education as a whole. In order to clarify our mission and vital family/school partnership, we are offering a workshop called Christian Academy Foundations. This will intimately acquaint you with who we are, our philosophies and our deep hope for your child. We believe you will find this time informative, helpful and encouraging as we move forward together in the education and spiritual formation of your child. 

We ask that at least one parent/guardian attend but we’d love for anyone else to come who has influence with or investment in your child (i.e. grandparents, step-parents, aunts/uncles, etc.). The same workshop will be offered four times. You can attend whichever session works best with your schedule.

The campus Armory will be open for you and, as a thank you for your attendance, will be offering a discount.   

Please see the following regarding parking and entering the buildings. 

Indiana Campus Evening Session – Please park in the “commons” lot, drive around to the back of the building and enter through the commons glass doors. The Armory will be open before the session begins so please arrive early for shopping. 

Indiana Campus Morning Session – Please park in the “commons” lot, drive around to the back of the building, park, then walk up the sidewalk to the middle school/high school entrance. Someone should be available to direct you. Check-in at the receptionist’s desk. The Armory will be open after the session. 

English Station Evening or Morning Session – Please park in the visitor lot on the left when facing the school from the main drive. Enter through the main entrance. Morning session attendees will stop at the desk to check in with a valid driver’s license or ID. The Armory will be open after both of these sessions.  

We are so thankful God has brought your family to Christian Academy and we take that responsibility very seriously. 

We look forward to meeting you!

At Christian Academy, we seek to constantly evaluate our schools from multiple perspectives, all to make this an even better place for your child and your family. As a reminder, the first initiative in our Strategic Plan is to build authentic two-way communication with all our stakeholders. Because the parent perspective is so important to us, we’ve partnered with ParentPulse, a company that specializes in collecting feedback for Christian schools. 

Beginning in September, each parent/guardian in our schools will receive an invitation every few months to respond to a short survey. These surveys will be staggered – parents will receive the invitations via email or text at different times. 

We simply ask that you take five minutes to complete the survey. Many schools only send one (longer) survey each year but we want to capture your thoughts and feelings in shorter surveys – and at multiple points over the year – so we can understand how things are evolving and how we can best adapt! 

So, please be on the lookout for an email or text from ParentPulse. The subject line will identify Christian Academy. 

The information you provide is collected solely for our analysis and your personal contact information will not be used or shared by ParentPulse. At the end of the survey, there is also an option to submit your responses anonymously. 

Thank you for choosing Christian Academy to partner with for your child’s Christian education!
