The Christmas season is in full swing, and what a joy it is to be able to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ! Trees are decorated, lights are strung, and carols are sung to honor the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6).
As you reflect on all your Christmas traditions, think back and try to remember your favorite Christmas gift. What was it like to hope for a gift and then to actually receive it? For me, it was getting my first puppy, Konner. [Read more…]

“We are all inextricably connected to each other by a power greater than all of us, and…our connection to that power and to one another is grounded in love and compassion.” – Brené Brown
One of the most wonderful aspects of social media is that it gives us the chance to participate, show up, and engage in the incredible Christian community around the world. Our AOA community is spread wide over many different countries and states, yet we are also a closely connected community rooted in the love of God and the compassion He asks us to show to each other.
To foster this community and give each AOA student the opportunity to connect with teachers and fellow classmates, we will be launching a new AOA Instagram this January. We already have an AOA Twitter account and Facebook page, and we hope you will connect with us on all three social networks!

The December 2018 student of the month is Zach Jacobe, a freshman who already stands over six feet tall and is standing out in the classroom in his first year at Alpha Omega Academy.
“Zach is my hardest working student this semester,” said Mrs. Alissa Guest, who nominated Zach for this month’s honor. “He seeks help when needed through email, online whiteboard hours, and help messages. He doesn’t work just to get through a unit but rather works to understand the concept to the best of his ability. After taking a quiz or test, he will come online to review the questions he got incorrect to ensure mastery of the concepts. He is a kind and respectful student who I feel deserves to be recognized for his hard work.” [Read more…]

The November 2018 student of the month is Hannah Caldwell, a sophomore enrolled in the Alpha Omega Academy Alliance Program through Gilead Christian School in Ohio. Through AOA Alliance, Caldwell can be enrolled at her own school, while also taking courses through AOA, including English II, where she has impressed Mrs. Linda Kraft.
“Hannah is in my English II class and is doing well academically,” Kraft said. “She is a very conscientious student who asks for clarification before assignments, as well as asks for explanations if something is missed. She is very courteous and pleasant in her messages to me.” [Read more…]

The October 2018 student of the month is Hannah McDonald, a sixth-grade student from Eastern Alabama who has impressed her teachers with her positive attitude and excellent grades.
“Hannah is extremely proactive with her academics,” wrote Mrs. Kelly Kuehn, who nominated Hannah for the October honor. “Hannah has displayed tremendous effort towards truly understanding the content. When she doesn’t understand something, she seeks help immediately. Hannah meets with me regularly during my whiteboard hour. This is all Hannah’s effort. She is so proactive and takes total responsibility for her learning.” [Read more…]
