Great Lakes Adventist Academy is a 9-12 grade boarding academy located in Cedar Lake, Michigan and it serves approximately 185 students (over 90% boarding). We have seen continuous growth in enrollment over the past five school years, speaking to the stability and growth of the school program. GLAA was established in 1987 when Cedar Lake Academy (est. 1898) and Adelphian Academy (est. 1904) merged to become one school, and the school is well established and rich with history. GLAA is known for its strong academics, traditional Adventist values, and its family atmosphere. To learn more, visit the GLAA Facebook page or the website at www.glaa.net.

We have a very close-knit staff family, and the ideal candidate will be a team player who is willing to be part of a wonderful, supportive school community. All full-time, salaried employees are required to live on campus, so campus housing will be provided at a reasonable rent.
