The school photographer will be back on campus on Tuesday, September 25, to photograph any students who were absent on our original picture day or to photograph students whose parents would like for them to have a retake. If you would like for your child to have their picture taken again, please email your child’s teacher by Monday, September 24. Students will not be photographed again without parent permission.

During Change for Christ Week (September 17-21), students and staff will get to participate in themed dress days for a donation of $1 per day. All of the funds that we raise will go towards the Jackson family as they serve God as missionaries in Southeast Asia. Mrs. Jackson is one of our former teachers! We have had Change for Christ Week for the last seven years to give to the work of the Jackson family and our students and families have given over $16,000 towards their ministry! The Jacksons are in the U.S. on furlough now and will be at our chapel services on September 20!
