What a year! 🎾🏒⚽♟️🥋🔬

As we wrap up our after-school clubs for the school year, we're celebrating all the fun, friendships, and new skills our scholars gained through activities like Pickleball, Tennis, Hockey with the Carolina Hurricanes, Soccer Shots, Taekwondo, Chess, STEM, and more!

We're already looking ahead to next year and would love your help. What clubs would you like to see offered at Peak? Drop your school-appropriate ideas in the comments below! 👇

Here's to another year of learning, growing, and having fun together! 💙💛

🏒❤️🖤 GO CANES! GO PEAK! 🖤❤️🏒

We're proud to partner with the Carolina Hurricanes and bring exciting opportunities and experiences to our scholars throughout the school year! As the Hurricanes continue their journey in the Stanley Cup Finals, our PEAK family is showing up in full support for Game 2.

Tomorrow, scholars are invited to wear their Hurricanes gear or red, white, and black tops with uniform or jean bottoms as we cheer on the Canes. While Game 1 didn't go our way, we know this team is built on determination, resilience, and heart—qualities we work to instill in our scholars every day!

A special shout-out to Thomas Whitmeyer for his ongoing support of our school and students. Through this partnership, he has become a valued part of the PEAK family, and we appreciate all he does to help connect our scholars with the Carolina Hurricanes organization.

Let's fill our hallways with Hurricanes spirit and show our support loud and proud!

❤️🖤 GOOOOO CANES! 🖤❤️

🌟 A Special Shoutout to Mrs. Senator's First Grade Class! 🌟
At Peak Charter Academy, our students don't just learn about character—they bring it to life!
Mrs. Senator's first graders recently created a one-of-a-kind Moral Focus Book, filled with student-written stories, reflections, and illustrations that showcase the virtues they've learned throughout the year. From Respect and Courage to the many other Moral Focus traits, each page highlights how our young scholars understand and apply these important life lessons both in and out of the classroom.
We are so proud of the creativity, thoughtfulness, and hard work that went into this special project. A huge thank you to Mrs. Senator for providing her students with such a meaningful opportunity to combine writing, art, and character development into a keepsake they can be proud of for years to come!
💙 Way to go, First Grade! 💙

Our 7th grade scholars in Ms. Mullich’s Writing Workshop: Children’s Book elective have been hard at work bringing their creativity to life!

This quarter, students were challenged to create their very own children’s books completely from scratch. From developing meaningful themes and lessons for young readers, to planning storyboards, writing author biographies, and illustrating each page with drawings, color, and paint — every detail was thoughtfully created by our scholars.

Today, our middle school authors proudly shared their finished books with 1st and 2nd grade scholars, and tomorrow they’ll continue the experience by reading to Kindergarten! We are so proud to offer electives that encourage creativity, leadership, collaboration, and real-world learning experiences for our middle school students. Great job, scholars, and a special thank you to Ms. Mullich for inspiring our young authors! 👏📖

✨ At the Heart of Our School ✨

This week, we’re excited to shine the spotlight on our incredible 7th Grade ELA teacher, Mrs. Mullich!💛

Mrs. Mullich brings creativity, energy, and a love for learning into her classroom every single day. When she’s not inspiring students, you might find her diving into a good book, baking something delicious, gaming, or rolling the dice in a D&D session. 🎲 She’s been dancing and even surfing since high school, and still loves hitting hip hop and contemporary dance classes!

She’s also a true foodie at heart—tacos, bún bò huế, dak-galbi, hot pot, and dim sum are just a few of her favorites—and she and her husband love exploring the world together. So far, their travels have taken them to Canada, Mexico, Korea, Japan, and across most of the U.S. 🌎✈️

With 9 years in education, Mrs. Mullich has taught grades 6–9 ELA and spent 6 summers teaching ESL to students from all over the globe—truly bringing a world of experience into her classroom!

What keeps her coming back to Peak? It’s the welcoming community and the students who inspire her daily with their creativity and thoughtful insights. 💡

We’re so lucky to have you, Mrs. Mullich!

As Field Day comes to a close, we want to give a very special shoutout to our incredible school nurse, Mrs. Lisa! From keeping our students safe and cared for in the heat, to making sure every little bump, scrape, and concern was handled with kindness and patience — we truly could not have done today without her.

Mrs. Lisa showed up with a smile, endless compassion, and a heart for our students all day long. Thank you for being such an essential part of our school family and for helping make Field Day a success for everyone involved!
