A Message from the Principal’s Office (The Online Program)
 | We hope you had a wonderful Christmas season and are stepping into the new year feeling refreshed, encouraged, and ready for all that 2026 has to offer. January is a fantastic time for students to reset, refocus, and start the semester strong. Whether students are catching up, working to improve their grades, or continuing at a steady pace, this month provides a fresh opportunity to build momentum and establish healthy academic habits. Staying consistent now sets a positive tone for the rest of the school year. As always, we encourage students to reach out to their teachers whenever they have questions or need support. Our teachers deeply care about each student’s success and are committed to walking alongside them every step of the way. Parents are welcome to email teachers directly with any questions or concerns. You can also reach out to the Principal’s Office at principal@enlightiumacademy.com. We’re here to support you and your student in any way we can!
