Celebrating the people who make Bakersfield Adventist Academy possible
✨ Updated April 3, 2026- Tony Reyes brought his own tools and fixed the gym door hinge that had been sticking for three months — took him 20 minutes and saved us a repair call.
- Sandra Flores restocked every classroom’s supply shelf on her own dime — teachers only found out because she left a little handwritten note on each desk.
- A crew of dads power-washed the front walkway and parking lot the night before Open House. Nobody asked them to. They just showed up with equipment.
- Coach Martinez’s wife baked 200 cookies for the Teacher Appreciation luncheon — decorated with each teacher’s initial. Staff were genuinely moved.
This Month’s Community Impact
For putting together the shoe drive and demonstrating such incredible leadership — always stepping up wherever the community needs it, and going the extra mile to mail off the shoes to earn money for the school!
A Note of Thanks
Bakersfield Adventist Academy is built on the hearts and hands of people who give far more than is ever asked. This page is a small attempt to say what words rarely can.
✨ Spring 2026 — With gratitudeThank you for your dedication to our elementary students and for faithfully showing up to provide library services for them. The love of reading you nurture in our youngest learners is a gift that will last a lifetime.
Thank you for your dedication and faithfulness to BAA, and for your willingness to play piano and accompany K–12 students for all of their songs, concerts, and special events. Your music fills every corner of this school with something special.
Thank you for coordinating the elementary school classes’ songs for the fundraiser concert and ensuring every grade was prepared and ready to shine. The performance was a direct reflection of the care you poured into it.
Thank you for your hard work and dedication to ensure that the BAA fundraiser was a success. What you accomplished behind the scenes made the entire event possible — it didn’t go unnoticed.
Thank you for your time and dedication to ensuring that the BAA website was revamped and looking its very best! And thank you for designing the platform to buy and sell tickets for the fundraiser — a project that involved far more work than most people realized, and made the event run smoothly for families across the community.
Thank you for your leadership and your willingness to invest your time and efforts into improving our school and ensuring it is the best it can possibly be. Your vision and steady hand make BAA the place families trust.
Thank you for working tirelessly to ensure our campus is always looking its absolute best. The care you bring to every corner of these grounds is felt by every student, parent, and teacher who walks through our gates each day.
Thank you for always being willing to help and assist any time someone runs to you in a pinch. Your gracious, dependable spirit is one of those quiet things that holds this whole school together — and we are so grateful for you.
And finally — thank you to our amazing BAA students for your willingness to perform at the fundraiser and for doing such an incredible job. You are the reason all of this matters. Watching you step up and shine reminded every adult in that room exactly why we do what we do. We are so proud of each one of you.
This school is what it is because of people who give quietly, serve faithfully, and show up — not for recognition, but because they love these kids and this community. Thank you for being that kind of people.
— With deep gratitude, Bakersfield Adventist Academy
