October: Letter to the World
"Letter to the World" was created by D. Chase Angier, Marketa Fantová, and Evelyne Leblanc-Roberge in partnership with NYS DanceForce to highlight the need for public gathering spaces and to give voice to community members. The creators collaborated with Houghton students in grades 6-8 having them express their voices by writing their own letters to the world. Event attendees at the Central Terminal engaged with and were inspired by our students' letters to participate and write their own letters to submit during the event to be added to a community journal.

September: Color Run
Houghton Academy always kicks off the school year with an annual team building schoolwide activity. This year, we celebrated with a Color Run on Friday September 12, 2025. All students in grades Pre-K through 8th grade participated in the color run race! Fun was had by all, and it was a fabulous way to start the year promoting love and acceptance!
