Elementary Parents are invited to Middle School Info Night

October 14th, 5:30 PM in the FLC This meeting is intended to help 4th & 5th grade parents

make an informed decision about their child's middle

school experience. We also welcome parents from any

other grade level to join us.

You'll hear about the advantages of our accelerated

academic tracks from administrative staff/teachers and

have the opportunity to ask alumni parents/students how

our middle school program prepared them for not only

academic, but emotional, social, & spiritual success in high

school.

We know that as a Christian school there is a

higher responsibility to educate our students

not only academically, but spiritually. In the

Middle School chapel this week, our guest

Pastor, Alex Pecina invited students to make

a Profession of Faith. Six students stepped

forward to begin their walk with Christ. We

are committed to supporting these students

and their families on this journey.

Praise the Lord!
