I love our school! The education is high quality preparing my boys for the future and to serve their Lord. I appreciate the co-curriculars offered. In 7/8 grades, the PLTW is a huge blessing for those who work well with their hands.

Your school made a memorial to Vietnam Veterans killed in action. William Marvin Bellile was on your plaque. On June 9, 1969 William along with 1st Lt. Eddie Smith were killed and 16 others wounded in A Battery, 2/319th Artillery of the 101st Airborne Division. They were on Firebase Currahee near Hamburger Hill. I was with him that day. He would be proud to know that he will never be forgotten. As long a someone remembers----his memory will never die. Thank you. 1st Lt Leonard Griffin, Forward Observer, B Battery, 2/319th Artillery, 101st Airborne Division. He served us supper just before the fight began.
