Summer Office Hours

All offices will be closed July 4, 5, 12, 19, and 26. There will not be WA Weekly for most of July – it will resume on July 26.

Summer Serve
Summer Serve provides an opportunity to volunteer in a variety of capacities to make an impact on the presentation of our school facilities and help with projects that allow for a smooth transition into the fall. Since most of the academic building will continue to be under construction throughout the summer, we will need some help in early August to get spaces cleaned and ready for the school year to begin! Summer Serve is happening August 5-7. You can sign up for just a day, or come for more. Sign up using this form to join us next week.

General News

Textbook Acquisition for the 2024-2025 School Year
Families are responsible for purchasing or renting books for their student(s). Wheaton Academy has worked with our bookstore company, eCampus, to provide each family a convenient option to purchase or rent books.

Families can shop for each student’s books using eCampus’ “Shop by Schedule” option on their website. Then, eCampus will ship the purchased or rented books directly to each family’s home. Here are some important things to note:

• New families – If you have not yet received your student’s Dell Latitude or student email address, you may visit Student Services starting July 16 from 8 AM – 4 PM to pick it up.
• Bookstore opens on July 17
• All books must be shipped to your home, not Wheaton Academy.
• Shipping is free from July 17-24. After the first week, families will pay for their own shipping.
• Please order books by August 14 to ensure arrival before school begins on August 26.
• You must use your student’s Wheaton Academy email (lastname@walearner.org) to order books.
• If you have more than one student at Wheaton Academy, you will need each student’s email and must log in separately for each student, as their schedule information automatically populates the customized booklist through their email.

August Schools
We wanted to notify you that we will be changing our Health Information System for the 2024-2025 school year to August Schools.  August Schools will be replacing Magnus.  We will give you much more information about creating an account and filling out necessary forms in our Back-to-School checklist which will be released in May for those enrolled in Summer Academy and in June for everyone else.  If you have any questions about the system change, please contact Jenn Sezonov – jsezonov@wheatonacademy.org.

Host an International Student
The International Department is looking for families to host international students this fall. Hosting can be a wonderful experience to learn about other cultures and have a ministry as a family. Host families receive a monthly stipend and lots of support from our school. If you are interested or have questions, contact Julie Grant (International Student and Host Family Coordinator) at jgrant@wheatonacademy.org.
