A Note From The Principal

Look Up

Have you ever noticed the cross of Christ as you come in the main entrance of our school? Is it any wonder that it would cause us to look up in order to see it?

Let’s keep it simple today:

Every time you enter the doors to the facility that God has blessed us with, say a prayer of thanks, one of deep gratitude that our Savior no longer hangs on that cross, but is risen and reigns supreme no matter what happens in this world. He is in control, always has been and always will be.

When you are feeling down, look up!
