Inspirational Quote: It's not being a hero - It's just doing the right thing.

The way I interpret this quote is that people shouldn't get praised for being a decent human and doing the right thing.  It's sad that that is what our world has come to.  Sure, I understand bravery and life saving should be praised; but, simply doing the right thing should be a normal human reaction.  Do the right thing even if no one is watching.  Don't do something for the title or fame.  Just do it because it is right.  If someone is hurt, or if someone can't afford something - any act of helping is the right act.  A hero is anyone who is kind and helps those in need.  Not all heroes wear capes...some wear the Pine Tree Academy uniform.

Even though beach day and icebreaker were combined into one this year, we still managed to escape an entire day of school by having fun outside playing games and getting wet on the slip ’n slide. Although the seniors technically were crowned the winners of the ice-breaking game, the sophomore class was definitely the true winner. The sophomores also were able to be recognized as the official winners of the egg holding relay race. Beach day/icebreaker was a fun-filled outdoor break from our masked school days.

The start of this school year has been filled with uncertainty for students, parents, and faculty; HOWEVER, we are happy to report that with some necessary modifications, PTA students and staff are off and running!  Because of COVID-19, the projected enrollment was looking very light at the beginning of August.  Now, the elementary, in particular, is busting at the seams.  Thank you to all who have prayed for Pine Tree Academy, helped to prep dividers, and aided the administration in COVID-19 preparations by putting up campmeeting tents for outdoor classes.  Please keep us in your prayers as we continue through our school year.  Below are some pictures of our first few weeks of classes.
