At PNA, field trips are an intentional extension of our academic program designed to spark curiosity, and connect students to the world around them.

Our Kindergarten class recently visited the PAC to see The Singing Zoologist, where science, music, and storytelling came together in a joyful, memorable learning experience.

Because at Pacific Northern Academy, education is everywhere.

We love the APAA team! Thanks for a wonderful event!!

These amazing photos by MJ Meade Photography only capture half the magic of last Friday’s Pacific Northern Academy Pearl Jubilee Gala Fundraiser ✨

We were honored to support such an incredible evening, managing the online silent auction, handling check-in and check-out, clerking bids in real time, and bringing the energy to the room with our live auction and paddle raise.

From the first bid to the final paddle, the generosity in the room was inspiring. Events like this are a powerful reminder of what a community can accomplish together in support of its students.

Thank you to everyone who made the night so meaningful. We’re grateful to have been part of it 💫
