Administrator’s Acclaim: 2008-2009 has been a wonderful year! God has been glorified as students have learned and grown in His word and have applied scripture to their daily lives. I have been grateful for the students and the progress spiritually and academically that has taken place in their hearts and minds. Praise be to God as we end the school year, as never before have our enrollment numbers for next year been so high. We truly are privileged to teach each student and partner with each parent to provide a strong Christian education for all who call Ankeny Christian Academy their school! May you seek rest and relaxation during the summer months, and may the Lord direct your steps. Following the Lord’s Lead, Mrs. Joyce Hansen
