Can you say Lapis Lazuli? 💎✨
Our middle school students can — and they used it too! Today, they explored history and faith by creating mosaic art with replicas of ancient stones, including this royal blue beauty. Each piece reflected a truth about Christ, inspired by our study of Colossians 1. A meaningful blend of Social Studies and Bible, and a day full of creativity, learning, and purpose!

🎃🍩 Pre-K4 Fall Fun! 🍩🎃
On Monday, our Pre-K4 students had an amazing time at Post Family Farm! They picked pumpkins, enjoyed delicious donuts, and made sweet autumn memories together. 🍁

Chapel today reminded us of something important—our school will never be perfect, because none of us are. But we serve a perfect God, and in Him we find grace, love, and unity. Let’s keep our eyes on Jesus, the reason we’re here and the hope that holds us together.
