Events & Announcements

The best preparation for a successful new beginning is preparing our hearts and minds for action in advance. The first and most important step is to set our hearts to trust God with our new beginning and to lean on the truth that He has prepared everything in advance for us to succeed in what He has called us to do, to change, and to pursue. This is true even as we are preparing for the start of a new school year. Let us lean into Him for everything that lies ahead of us and step forth with confidence that He has gone before us.

2023-24 High School Schedules

Finalized schedules will be available to view Tuesday, Aug. 1st

Here is the updated 2023-24 high school period and time schedule.

Parking is on Hold

We will start the year without underclassmen being able to drive on campus. This means that only Juniors and Seniors will be able to obtain a driver’s parking permit for the upcoming school year. We understand that this is an inconvenience, but the good news is that we are just on hold for opening up spaces for underclassmen. Our property expansion for additional parking is still under construction and will not be ready for the start of the school year. There will also not be any paid parking in the old heirloom lot as they do not own it anymore.
