Highlights of the 2020-2021 Yearbook:
- 120 pages that include photo spreads of special events, student life, clubs, Performing Arts' productions, and ACA's first Homecoming celebration.
- Student jobs and hobbies outside ACA.
- A focus on student leaders with photos taken in downtown Tulsa.

A note from the Yearbook Adviser:
This has been a year unlike any other, but one thing has remained a steadfast goal for the Yearbook staff: This yearbook will not mention the pandemic. No pages of "mask fashion" or a timeline of major news events. This is a reality they have lived and every aspect of their lives has been affected over the past year. Every day our students have wondered "What will be canceled next?" They want to hold onto what little normalcy we have managed to hang onto this year. In the course of their "creative stubbornness," they have taught me to let go of expectations and focus on the good. It has been a joy to watch them, and I, personally, can't wait for the school to see their hard work.
I want to encourage the ACA family to purchase this year's book, and support this incredible group of artists. Find out how our students are "Re-Claiming the 20s" by purchasing ACA's 2020-2021 Yearbook.

The Charger will feature two graduates each week as our time with the Senior Class of 2021 winds down. This group of scholars, artists, dreamers, and adventurers chose the theme "Go with the Flow!" for this unique school year, and ACA is immensely proud of their resiliency and creativity navigating all the changes. Congratulations class of 2021! |

L'aria Krautter
House: Pegasus
Any leadership positions? I am president of the Exercise Science Club and chaplain of the Senior Class.
What are your plans for after graduation?
I plan to attend the University of Tulsa and major in Pre-Med.
A school activity and/or club you want to remember:
I’m going to remember the amazing performing arts program at Augustine! It has shaped and changed me more than I can say. All the classes and musicals I’ve participated in through my years at ACA, I will never forget. The Exercise Science Club has also been an amazing part of my senior year and I’ll always remember it. Working with my peers and exercising once a week gave me a newfound love for exercise and exercise training.
Favorite class at ACA and why?
Mrs. Schmidt made me love history my eighth grade year in Dialectic Modern History, and Hebrew and Judaism classes really deepened my appreciation of the Bible and the times Jesus lived in.
What advice do you have for ACA students?
Have fun! Don’t worry about things too much! If things are meant to be they will be. Stand up for yourself and your opinions and TALK TO THE PEOPLE around you! You’re time with them will be up before you know it. Laugh at everything and learn a lot.

Nicholas Loper
House: Griffin (As King of Spring Court, Nick is an honorary member of all four Royal Houses).
Any leadership positions?
Griffin House Chaplin, historian of the Senior class, and Vice President of the Thespian Society.
What are your plans for after graduation? Attend John Brown University and major in Construction Management with a minor in Digital Cinema.
A school activity and/or club you want to remember: The musicals!
Favorite class at ACA and why?
I have had many favorite teachers over the years, and it’s impossible to choose one; but if I were to choose the BEST teacher I’ve had, it has to be Mr. Post. During my sophomore year, I took Logic with him, and during my junior year, I took his US History class. He emphasizes teaching his students HOW to learn rather than just WHAT to learn. Most importantly, he makes us to WANT to learn.
What advice do you have for ACA students?
If you want something changed, it’s up to you. No one will do it for you, because no one thinks the way you do. You have to effectively communicate with the people who can make that change happen. Work hard to make it happen, but be content if it doesn’t.
