A MESSAGE FROM MR. VINSON

I cannot tell you how excited I am to start this new school year! As a staff, we are viewing every single day that we are able to have school on campus as a gift from God. We want to maximize our time as we seek to love each student by pouring into them both academically and spiritually. Thank you for entrusting your child’s education with us. We count it a great privilege to partner with you.
