The Principal’s Piece: A Note From Mrs. Randolph

As we approach the Thanksgiving holiday, I would like each of you to know how very thankful I am for your family. It is a privilege to partner with you for your child’s education. I pray that you have a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with good food, fellowship, health, and time with loved ones. 


Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. 1 Chronicles 16:34


Chapel

We just completed our 8th lesson in our Life Is A Highway series. The “Watch for Children” sign reminds us that we should be a Godly example to those that are younger than us. Our Power Verse was: “Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example to all believers.” 2 Timothy 4:12


Character Education Class for december

A Note From Mrs. Hurt: This December we will focus on the fruit of the Spirit: Faithfulness.  God shows His faithfulness to us, and the Holy Spirit gives us His strength to be faithful to Him, our family, and our friends. 

For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations. Psalm 100:5 

Character Ed. Focus:

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. Galatians 5:22-23
