October is here, and NNA is FALL-ing into greatness!
What an AWESOME week at Naturally Nourished Academy!
🎤Miss Nue took the spotlight as our announcements leader this week, bringing ALL the sass, personality, and confidence! This little scholar has BIG energy, and we love every bit of it!
🔬🦠 Genetics On-The-Go/Triangle Notary & Apostille/Nubian Roots Co. was BACK on the scene for October, and our scholars became official GERM DETECTIVES! From microscope stations to exploring germs and viruses, our young scientists even got creative making their very own germ and virus models! Hands-on learning is our FAVORITE kind of learning! 🧪
🧹💙 We also took time to celebrate our beloved Mr. Joe, our amazing custodian! If you know anything about NNA, you know our scholars bring the ENERGY! Mr. Joe lovingly takes care of all the chaos we leave behind at the end of each school day, and we couldn’t be more thankful for him! Our village wouldn’t be complete without him!
Between science discoveries, sweet celebrations, big personalities, and lots of laughter, October is already off to a BEAUTIFUL start!
Principal Parker’s heart is FULL! There’s truly nothing like watching our scholars learn, grow, explore, and make memories together.

Pumpkin Kisses & Harvest Wishes!
Oh my GOURD, what a day!
Our Naturally Nourished Academy family traded pencils for pumpkins and classrooms for country air today at Hill Ridge Farms! 🚜
From pumpkins and sweet smiles to laughter, adventures, and precious memories, today was filled with ALL the FALL feels!
Our FIRST FIELD TRIP of the 2026–2027 school year was one for the books!
A HUGE thank you to Hill Ridge Farms for being so incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating to our NNA family! Your kindness helped make our scholars’ experience extra special!
And can we talk about Fiesta Mexicana Youngsville NC ?! 🌮They were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING to us! From their wonderful hospitality to the way they welcomed and cared for our large group, we couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience! Thank you for showing our little school so much love!
🚌Principal Parker also wants to give a VERY special shoutout to Mr. Kelly, our bus driver for the day! Thank you for getting our precious cargo to and from our destinations safely! Your time, patience, and willingness to help our school mean more than you know! We appreciate YOU!
To our amazing NNA parents, teachers, and staff — THANK YOU for showing up, lending helping hands, sharing laughs, and helping make our first field trip such a success! It truly takes a village, and we’re blessed with a beautiful one!
There’s something so special about watching our scholars experience the world beyond the classroom, surrounded by people who love and support them.
We didn’t just pick pumpkins today… we planted memories that will last a lifetime!
At NNA, we’re more than a school — we’re a FAMILY, growing together one season at a time!

🩷 “We’re Going on a BLEND Hunt!” Mrs. Waters-Betts’ students had a blast reading with their peers while searching for blends! Learning is always better when we can move, explore, and learn together. 📖🔎

These are the moments we love at NNA—reading, creating, exploring, celebrating, and making me
