Academy employees celebrated a loyal staff member at a beginning-of-the-year luncheon Aug. 14. Mary Martha Noack, whose 55 years of dedicated service to the Academy is surely one for the record book, has decided to retire from her duties in the lunch room. With gratitude for all that she has done for students and staff alike through the years, we wish Mary Martha much happiness in her golden years.

We are counting on your support of our Innisbrook Sales campaign, which will begin Aug. 29 and run through Sept. 15. Plan now to stock up on quality wrapping paper and shop for gift items from the catalog or web site.
