Immanuel Academy
By God’s amazing grace, Immanuel Academy has received a generous donation of five excellent computers and five new Chromebooks. These gifts come from the heartfelt contributions of donors and parents. After two months of prayer, God made a way for this blessing to come through. This donation has been an incredible help, especially as the students prepare for the online MAP test. Teachers are overjoyed and deeply grateful to God and to all those who made these generous gifts possible.

As part of Immanuel Academy’s ongoing efforts to give back to the community, students and staff at Immanuel Academy took time this season to express gratitude for the tireless work of local heroes.

Students gathered in their classrooms and teachers guided them to create personalized cards filled with messages of thanks and admiration. Each card was carefully crafted to convey the appreciation of the entire Immanuel Academy community for the hard work and sacrifices made daily by these first responders and public service workers. Along with the cards, school contributed some gifts, offering tokens of appreciation to brighten the holiday season for those who serve on the front lines.
