School Notes
- Special emphasis is placed on leading every child to an understanding of who Jesus is and how each child can have a personal relationship with Him. Special emphasis is placed on leading every child to an understanding of who Jesus is and how each child can have a personal relationship with Him. Our goal is to minister to students and their family. We could not, and have no desire to, take the place of each child`s father and mother. Our objective is to firmly support and reinforce what the parents are already doing in the home. If the home is not Christ-centered and biblically based, then what and who we are in Christ may introduce Christ to the child, parents, and family.
