Sandefurs

A Note From Mr. Sandefur

Lion Family,

Good afternoon! This past week we had the opportunity to usher in the Christmas season with productions from our band and choral music departments. Those in attendance were truly blessed as we celebrated the true reason for the season, the birth and life of Jesus Christ. I want to thank all of our students and staff who participated as they did an incredible job of faithfully using their gifts and talents to glorify God. There are two more opportunities this week to celebrate the meaning of Christmas as our pre-K and elementary students hold their program Thursday evening, and on Saturday we will host a special screening of “The Chosen” Christmas program. If you are able, please plan on joining us as we celebrate the true meaning of Christmas.

While we are actively celebrating Christmas, we are also working to finish the academic semester as strongly as possible. Please be sure to check your student’s grades and communicate with teachers as the semester draws to an end. Let us strive together to finish with excellence.

In Christ Alone,

Jeremy Sandefur
President

“The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. He was in the world, and the world was made through him…” – John 1:9-10
