Snapshots
Snapshots provide students and their parents/guardians insight into all of the offerings available during a month, including:
The Student Council hosted its annual Talent Show event live on November 15th.
The theme for the Talent Show was “Around the World”. Enlightium has students all over the globe, and the Student Council wanted to highlight our diverse student body.
Our live event was a success, and winners were voted for by their peers. Thank you to everyone who attended!
The compilation of Talent show entries will be published on our YouTube channel!
Virtual Retreats
Enlightium Academy hosted the Virtual Student Retreat for grades 9-12 students on November 22nd.
We had a great turnout and enjoyed our time with our wonderful students.
The retreat included two beautiful messages from our Head of School, Mr. Will Mead, games, giveaways, games, worship, and more!
All Enlightium Academy students residing in the continental United States are eligible to participate. Students who reside outside of the continental U.S. can participate and have their books shipped to a friend/family member in the continental U.S.
A portion of the proceeds will support our teachers during Teacher Appreciation Week!

Pep Rally
Enlightium will host the next Pep Rally on January 10th from 12:00-1:00 pm PST.
Students can expect to have a great time with their peers while playing games, meet a few members of the Student Council, giveaways and more!
The theme for this pep rally is Winter Wonderland, so students should show up dressed cozy and warm just in time for winter.
Bible studies are a time for students to gather together and experience the life-transforming power of God’s Word. Our studies consist of prayer, the Word, and fellowship. This year we are going through the book of Philippians.
All students in grades PreK-12 are encouraged to participate in Enlightium's Bible studies. An Enlightium staff or faculty member will guide the time.
Invitations, including the link to the Zoom meeting, will be sent to student and parent emails, along with text messages. These invitations will go out 30 minutes before each study.
Students may not be able to enter the meeting if they are significantly late (15 minutes or over).
Student Chapels
Student chapels are a time for students to come together in worship and praise from around the nation and world, and grow in the knowledge of Christ by the power of His Spirit and Word.
Students get opportunities to pray, read Scripture, and even help lead songs of praise while a member of our staff or faculty delivers a message. Our messages this year will focus on our theme from Philippians, Peace Beyond Understanding (Phil. 4:6–7).

School Trips With Joshua Expeditions

Students and families joined Mrs. Cook for a 2-day trip to Phoenix, Arizona.
The successful trip included an evening stargazing tour, two hikes, dinners, devotions, and more!
Families came together to grow, encourage, and fellowship with one another.
Enlightium plans to offer more events in the future. Please be on the lookout for more information on how you can attend the next one.
A Message from the Principal’s Office (The Online Program)
We hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and that you are looking forward to the Christmas season! We hope this is a meaningful time for your family.
This time of year is a great time of year for students to work hard and make a big impact on their grades and progress. If students are struggling they still have time to get caught up and improve grades. If students are on track or ahead, this can be a great time to keep digging deep into the content!
If students or parents have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to the teachers directly or to the Principal’s Office. We are here to help!
