Happy Birthday to our NLA principal, Mr. Lazare! 🎉

🦅 NLA is more than a place to learn, we are a family. It’s where students are known, supported, and encouraged, and where teachers lead with care and purpose.

At the center of it all is Jesus. His love guides every lesson, every relationship, and every step.

Because a school rooted in Him doesn’t just educate, it inspires, uplifts, and prepares every heart to walk confidently in purpose.

This year is one for the books! New Life Academy has made history.

Our New Life Academy Eagles brought home incredible victories:
• 1st place in Basketball
• Devyn Basaldua – 1st place in Track
• Itzel Benitez – 1st place in Girls Track
• Alonzo Escamilla, Daniel Basaldua, Devyn Basaldua, Armando Contreras and Urijah Almanza – 1st place in the Boys Relay
• Darrian Basaldua – 1st place in Archery

We are so proud of our NLA Eagles! Not only were championships won, but friendships were formed and long-lasting memories were made. So many special moments will be remembered for years to come, and a flame has been ignited. We’re already excited and looking forward to competing again next year. 🦅🏆
