Tomorrow, 10/12 the new TheNCLA.org website will launch. We are really excited with all the capabilities it has including the Live Feed and News sections which can been accessed both on the main page and the app. Because all posts will be available on the site, we are planning to deactivate all except for the main NCLA Facebook page. So starting tomorrow, we will no longer have separate K-2, 3-5, Middle, and High groups on Facebook. Instagram will remain as it is. We hope you find streamlining the sites will make it easier to find what you are looking for.

NCLA raised over $2,000 for The Pulsera Project which helps to employ artisans with fair trade jobs, supports education in communities throughout Central America, and funds amazing projects that leave a positive and lasting social impact on the lives of countless Nicaraguans and Guatemalans. The bracelet sale was sponsored by Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica - NCLA's Spanish Honor Society. As a thank you gift for partnering with Central American artists to make the world a more just and colorful place, the organization sent a set of maracas hand-carved and painted with "North Carolina Leadership Academy" by artisans in the Masaya region of Nicaragua (see photo).
