Pinnacle Academy

On Thursday, October 8th the Oakton Fire Department was kind enough to visit our school and talk to our students. Local firemen gave a very informative and useful presentation to the whole school on fire safety, something all children should be aware of. We would like to especially thank the Oakton Fire Department for this event. 

On Friday, September 4th, Pinnacle Academy hosted a Spirit day for our students. It was a fun filled day where students were able to showcase their proud spirit for Pinnacle Academy by wearing our school colors: orange and purple. In the afternoon, the entire school had the opportunity to meet outside in the school lawn and play exciting games and have a refreshing treat. It was remarkable to see all of our students so proud of being a part of Pinnacle Academy. We hope to continue this great tradition in the future.

On Wednesday, September 2nd 2009, pre-k students and their families gathered at Pinnacle Academy to celebrate the beginning of the school year with a ‘Welcome Dinner’. They were welcomed by their principal, vice principals, and their teacher. Everyone was able to enjoy food graciously provided by families of Pinnacle Academy, all of which was very delicious! The year is already off to a great start with our first ‘Welcome Dinner’ for pre-k! This proves that future dinners for all other grades, will be wonderful opportunities to build great memories at Pinnacle Academy. 

On May 28, 2009, the First Grade class participated in their First Spelling Competition.  To prepare, the first graders spent countless hours studying over 500 words from as high as the sixth grade level!  The objective for each student was not only to spell correctly, but to spell very fast as well!  They all did a fabulous job, and the entire school, as well as first grade parents, came to support them in their head-to-head “Around the World” type challenge.
