Hello! here is a quick video that will hopefully answer all of your questions about our fundraiser with Sherwood Forest Farms. Today your child will receive all of the sales material in their white binder. Fundraiser sales are from September 30th - October 28th! Be on the look out for our top selling incentives! Merry wreath selling!
I have a slightly used umbrella stroller for free for any one that could use it. My grandchildren have out grown in. If you are interested please message me on instant messenger.
Can middle school and high school teachers please comment here on sanitization supplies they will use? They are hard to find, especially wipes. It would be good to know if Clorox spray and paper towels can be used instead. They are cheaper and easier to find, but I know it has a harsh bleach smell to it. I don’t know enough about essential oil sprays to know is they will kill COVID, so I can’t make suggestions there. If teachers are allowed to diffuse essential oils that kill airborne stuff and you would like those blends donated, it would be good to know that too. Thanks ❤️

“We are celebrating Black History Month! Our high school World History class has so far this month learned about Afro-Puerto Rican historian Arturo Schomburg, Haitian Revolutionary Toussaint Louverture, Jamaican Liberator Queen Nanny, Mexican President Vicente Guerrero, and composer Chevalier de Saint Georges. If you would like to learn more about why there is a need to spotlight Black history, the video and biography of Arturo Schomberg is my favorite place to start.” ~Trisha McKenzie

Our Story

Community Leadership Academy is a non-denominational private Christian school located in Tallahassee, FL. A unique feature of CLA is that we see our role as a true partnership with parents, and we teach to the heart of the child. It is our aim to develop three loves in our students: a love of God, a love of learning, and a love of others. The integral involvement of parents in this endeavor makes all the difference in the world!

We believe God has created each of our children with a purpose, with the ability to learn, and with a call to impact the world around them as a servant of Christ. Our students will be prepared to excel in the halls of higher learning and make a lasting impact on the world around them through the spirit of excellence and leadership they will exhibit.

We welcome you to visit our school and see for yourselves what CLA is all about.
