Open House

We had our first "Open House" this past Saturday. We had about 25 families come to hear and see what's going on here at Upper Room Christian School. Dr. Eck, our Principal, opened at 10am and began sharing the history of our school and the vision of where we're going. I was up next with some more info and inspiration.

The school band and choir ministered to us in song and there was a tangible presence of God in the room. After they finished we introduced several parents of students who attend our school to share their experience with our prospective new families. Our teachers were on hand to answer personal questions afterward and we had out a sampling from our art department, student publications department and the various curriculum that we use for each grade.

All in all it was a great two hour presentation of our school and as a result we had 10 families enroll new students for the upcoming 2012-2013 school year. As schools are closing all around us both in the public and private sector we are grateful that God continues to bless, provide and enable us to go forward with the vision he gave us 30 years ago to "Train up our children in the way they should go so that when they are old they will not depart from it"!

Grace and Peace,
