Help Us Secure a Permanent Home for ST. SAVA ACADEMY
We aim to raise $3.2 million to secure a permanent home for St. Sava Academy, covering the purchase and essential transition expenses. Achieving this goal will provide a stable, innovative environment for our students and ensure a lasting legacy in the community.
St. Sava Academy is raising funds to secure a permanent home by acquiring the St. Paul Lutheran Church and School property.
The $3.2 million target will cover the purchase price, laying the foundation for a state-of-the-art educational facility.
This investment will not only provide a stable, inspiring environment for our students but also strengthen community ties and ensure a lasting legacy for future generations.
The Academy provides instruction in either Serbian or Russian.

A Joyful Beginning: A Message from Principal Anna Kirsanov
Ms. Anna Kirsanov
Principal
Dear St. Sava Academy Families, Students, and Staff,
It is with great joy, gratitude, and excitement that I introduce myself as the new Principal of St. Sava Academy.
From the moment I first learned about St. Sava, I was immediately drawn to the deep sense of faith, community, and commitment to academic excellence that defines this school. Now, having officially joined the St. Sava family, I feel truly honored and blessed to be part of such a special community.
I have a deep passion for supporting students, partnering with families, and building uplifting school communities where everyone feels welcome, valued, and inspired. I am excited to bring that with me to St. Sava Academy!
At the heart of my leadership is connection. I believe that the strongest schools are built on genuine relationships among students, teachers, families, and the broader community. School is not just a place to learn; it should feel like a second home where each individual is celebrated, valued and deep friendships are born. As a first-generation American of Russian and Ukrainian heritage, I deeply value the role that tradition, culture, and faith play in shaping our lives and learning. I am so excited to be part of a school that not only offers academic rigor but also encourages students to explore and celebrate their unique identities… READ MORE >>
St. Sava Academy Parent Network Bylaws Adopted
The Board of Trustees is pleased to announce the adoption of the Bylaws of the St. Sava Academy Parent Network. The Bylaws give our parent community a clear and lasting structure through which parents, faculty, staff, trustees, and clergy work together in support of our students and the Orthodox Christian mission of the Academy.
Every parent and guardian of a currently enrolled student is automatically a member of the Parent Network. There are no dues, and each household has a vote.
The Parent Network is led by an Executive Board of four elected officers (Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary/Communications Lead, and Treasurer) and Grade-Level Representatives for K–2, 3–5, and 6–8, with a Teacher Representative, School Liaison, and Clergy Liaison in an advisory role. Officers and Grade Representatives are elected each spring, and nominations are open to every parent.
The Parent Network meets at least four times a year, and all parents are welcome to attend, share feedback, and suggest initiatives. Its work centers on building community, coordinating volunteers for events like SerbFest, book fairs, field trips, and picnics, supporting fundraising approved by school leadership, and keeping families informed and connected.
Defined roles with defined responsibilities make it easier for any parent to see where they can contribute and to step forward with confidence. There is a place for you in this work.
Interested in serving as an officer, a Grade Representative, or on the Nominating Committee? Contact the Parent Network at pn@stsavaacademy.org or the school office at office@stsavaacademy.org.
