        Inclement Weather Procedures

        Dear CLA Families, For times of inclement weather (school closings, delays, and early dismissals), CLA usually follows the Brookfield School system. So, if Brookfield schools are closed, CLA will be closed as well.

        However, because we have many families and staff commuting from long distances, we do reserve the right to determine whether the school will open in cases where Brookfield schools are delayed or have early dismissal. This is done for the safety of our families and staff. In all cases, CLA will communicate our status in the following ways:


        1. Email:
          • Gradelink
        2. Media:
          • NBC30 (Channel 6)
        3. Text from Christian life Academy: Contact the main office if you are unsure your phone number is current

        • 2 Hour Delay
          • 10:15 am student arrival
          • 10:25 am school begins
            • There is NO Before Care
          • Normal dismissal time
        • 3 Hour Delay
          • 11:15 am student arrival
          • 11:25 school begins
            • There is NO Before Care
          • Normal dismissal time
        • Early Dismissals
          • 11:30 am (typically)
            • NO Bus service

         

         

        2024 Year End Giving Campaign

         

        There is more need than ever “for such a time as this” to raise our children to think clearly, independently, and Biblically; to teach them to stand on and stand strong in their faith, to be an inspiration, and to live by God’s wisdom and grace.

        We need your help to finish the year strong. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to the school by December 31st.  Your donation helps us with the day-to-day costs of running the school, as well as helps us provide financial aid to families who otherwise couldn’t attend.

        Every gift, large or small, makes a huge difference for our school – thank you for your gift!

        A Letter from Alli Morgan

        Dear CLA parents, My name is Alli, and I’m the owner of Alleycat Catering.  This Fall, we are excited to be back and to commence our 11th year! A little information about me. I was born and raised in Australia where, after a four-year working apprenticeship and trade college, I qualified as a chef and then worked in several restaurants, including one of the largest department stores in Melbourne. I am passionate about good nutrition for our own family, and a big believer in the truth of what ancient Hippocrates said: “Let food be thy medicine, or medicine will be thy food.” I believe that, working together, we can encourage all our children to love eating well. My husband and I have 6 children, all of whom have been students at CLA! 4 have graduated, with 2 enrolled for 2024-2025. We love our school. It is always such a joy to have the support of parents and staff so that I can serve you and your children the best way possible. I know how much we all look forward to the new school year, and I can’t wait to see all the little faces once again.   Love and blessings, Alli Morgan Alleycat Catering
