Message from ASA
Dear Students and Parents,
Welcome once again to a brand new school year! As we begin our third week of school, we want to take a moment to share how excited we are to have your student with us and to thank you for being such an important part of our school community. We’ve already had a great start, and it's been wonderful getting to know the students as they settle into their routines, classrooms, and friendships. There’s a lot of positive energy in the school, and we’re looking forward to a year filled with growth, learning, and memorable moments.

Helpful Tips for a Successful School Year:
Here are a few reminders and tips to help ensure a smooth and productive year for everyone:
  1. Establish a Routine – A consistent bedtime and morning routine can make a huge difference in your child’s focus and mood during the school day.
  2. Stay Organized – Encourage your child to keep their backpack, folders, and homework organized. A little effort each day helps avoid stress later.
  3. Healthy Habits – Nutritious meals, regular exercise, and good sleep habits support both academic and emotional success.
  4. Celebrate Progress – Big or small, all accomplishments deserve to be celebrated. Encouragement from home makes a big impact!
This is going to be an amazing year, and we are here every step of the way to support you and your student. Let’s make it one to remember!

With excitement and gratitude,
ASA Wolves

Family Math Night- SAVE THE DATE

Why Math at ASA?

Supporting Every Student’s Journey Toward Opportunity, Confidence, and Innovation


At Allegiance STEAM Academy, we are deeply committed to providing every student with the skills, confidence, and opportunities they need to thrive — not only today, but well into the future. As part of that commitment, we are placing a school-wide focus on strengthening math learning across all grade levels this year.

Here’s why:
Math is a Gateway to Opportunity
Math is more than just numbers — it’s a powerful predictor of success in school, college, and life. Research shows that readiness for Algebra by 8th grade is one of the strongest indicators of high school graduation and college achievement. By helping students build a strong math foundation early, we are opening doors to their future.

Math Builds the Skills that Matter Most
In today’s world, students need more than content — they need to think critically, solve problems, and innovate. Math teaches exactly that. Whether students are learning to estimate, create models, or reason through complex situations, they are building the same skills used by engineers, doctors, designers, entrepreneurs, and other changemakers.

STEAM Careers Start with Strong Math Skills
As a STEAM school, we prepare students for a world full of exciting careers — from robotics to renewable energy, from biotech to aerospace. These fields demand strong math skills, and our students deserve to be ready for them.

Families Play a Powerful Role
You don’t need to be a math expert to support your child’s learning. What matters most is your encouragement, curiosity, and growth mindset. When students hear, “I believe in you,” or “Let’s figure this out together,” it makes a big difference.

This year, we’ll be offering Family Math Nights, resources, and ongoing communication to help you feel confident and supported.
Our Promise
We’re committed to making math:
  • Equitable: All students can succeed in math with the right support.
  • Engaging: Math should feel meaningful and connected to the real world.
  • Empowering: Students will build confidence and see themselves as capable thinkers and doers.

Let’s work together to help our students thrive in math — because their future is worth it.

ASA’s first event for the family math series Equipping Families for Math Success is scheduled for September 3, 2025.
The theme of this night is Growth Starts Here: Developing Mathematical Mindsets. The focus for this evening will be in changing how we talk about and approach math. Topics will include: the power of a growth mindset in math, avoiding “I am not a math person” language, and strategies for building math confidence at home. 

We hope you’ll say, “Count Me In!” and we’ll see you there. 

With gratitude,
ASA Leadership Team

no fast food

NO Fast Food and Lunch Drop-Off Procedures

Fast food is not permitted at school as it goes against our wellness program. We kindly ask that you do your best not to send your student to school with fast food.

If your student forgets their lunch, please do not bring fast food to school, as we will not accept it in order to maintain compliance with our wellness policy. Instead, your student will have the option to enjoy a free, healthy school lunch.

If you need to drop off a lunchbox for your student, please note that we aim to minimize classroom disruptions. To help with this, please:
  • Clearly label your student’s name on the lunchbox.
  • Encourage your student to pick up their lunchbox during recess or on their way to the lunchroom.
Thank you for your understanding and support in promoting a healthy learning environment for all students.
