Great Lakes Adventist Academy - History

History

The school was started in the early 1900s but was renamed during the 1980s to its current name. On November 2, 1986, Adelphian Academy and Cedar Lake Academy merged to form Great Lakes Adventist Academy. Prior to that, Grand Ledge Academy consolidated with Lansing Elementary School and Grand Ledge Elementary School in 1982. It then became Mid-Michigan Adventist Academy until 1989, when it was also merged into Great Lakes Adventist Academy. This left only two Adventist Academies in Michigan: Great Lakes Adventist Academy in Cedar Lake and Andrews Academy in Berrien Springs.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.
    Henry James (1843–1916)

    Systematic philosophical and practical anti-intellectualism such as we are witnessing appears to be something truly novel in the history of human culture.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    The visual is sorely undervalued in modern scholarship. Art history has attained only a fraction of the conceptual sophistication of literary criticism.... Drunk with self-love, criticism has hugely overestimated the centrality of language to western culture. It has failed to see the electrifying sign language of images.
    Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
