’Twas the night before the first day of school,
When all through Ashley Academy, not a classroom was dull;
The bulletin boards were hung by the doors with care,
In hopes that eager young minds soon would be there.
The teachers nestled snug in their beds,
While visions of lesson plans danced in their heads;
And the admin in offices, all wearing bright smiles,
Awaited the joy of students filling the aisles.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
The sound of children’s laughter—oh, nothing could matter more;
Away to the windows the teachers all dashed,
Threw open the shutters and lifted the sash.
The sun on the faces of students so bright,
Brought hope and excitement for futures alight;
When, what to our wondering eyes should appear,
But a sea of young minds, ready to learn and to cheer.
With a twinkle in eyes and a spring in each step,
Every student eager for memories to collect;
More rapid than eagles the school day would fly,
And teachers and students together gave a happy sigh.
"Now art! Now math! Now science and history!
On reading! On writing! On projects and mystery!
To the end of the hall, to the last bell’s call,
Now learn away! Learn away! Learn away, all!"
And as the day came to its warm, gentle close,
The teachers all smiled, their hearts full, heaven knows—
"Happy first day of school! We’re so glad you came!"
And the joy in their voices called each child by name.

🏐 Volleyball Camp Highlights! 🏐
Today, Coach switched things up and took our players to the sand volleyball court!
Digging and diving, in the sand challenged their strength and balance and brought plenty of laughs along the way.
All week, our campers have been working hard, building skills, and making memories both on and off the court. We love seeing their dedication, teamwork, and love for the game grow each day!
Go Griffins!
