Our school theme for 2008-2009 is "Connecting OTHERS to Christ," based on 1 Corinthians 9:12. Our mission is to bring others to Christ. Through His love, we reach out and connect with one another. In our weakness, Christ strengthens us so that we all can be saved and live with Him forever. God gives us opportunities each and every day to share the Gospel with our families, friends, and neighbors. May Christ bless our school year as we connect others to Christ.
