Our hearts are with the entire OMC community right now as they cope with this terrible loss. We are currently working on ways NFA can support the OMC community, students and families during this difficult time. Please keep our neighbors in your prayers.

There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it

We must be willing to let go of the life we planned so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

On January 19 and January 26 we will be hosting a fundraiser at Iron Hill Brewery in Chestnut Hill! 20% of your food bill will go toward the SSJ Welcome Center. You must tell your server that you are there for the SSJ Welcome Center, or show them the flyer. #ssjwelcomecenter

Engage students so they want to come to school. Empower students so they want to learn.

We're in week two of unpacking NFA's vision statement. We'll be looking at our students and how they "treasure self, others and the Earth this week! #livingNFAsvisionstatement

[Norwood-Fontbonne Academy @nfa1920]

Let’s take some time to “unpack” the NFA student vision statement, as we get ready for the start of another great school year. How do NFA students live out the vision statement?
Stay tuned these next few weeks and hear from our students on what our vision statement means to them.

Today, Derek Chauvin was found guilty. But our legal system is still far from just, and students may still feel a lack of closure. We hope you’ll reaffirm the value of Black lives and create space for students to process. These resources can help.

@TeachMrReed I was pulled over for “stopping at a stop sign for 5 seconds and not my (the cop’s) preferred 7 seconds”. I was pulled out of my car and forced to sit in the curb while 3 other cars were called in to search my car.
