Another Satisfied Customer!!

They say the proof of the pudding is in the eating and scripture says, "you shall know a tree by its fruit". Here is another parent testimonial of the change in her son's life since attending Upper Room Christian School.

"First I would like to say, I give honor to GOD, who is the head of my life. I want to thank the entire staff at Upper Room Christian School.  I've seen such a drastic change in my son, for the better.  As a family, we pray every night and every morning.  My son's prayers have gone from: 'Thank you God for my mother and father and my brothers, in your Holy Name I pray", (10 seconds) .......to 'Father GOD, we come before you giving you praise and worship, praying for those in need, praying over mom and dad, brothers, grandparents, those that are in need of something, asking for forgiveness of our sins, asking to be blessed by his talent and thanking God for his talents.' (5-10 minutes)  Needless to say, my husband and I were so amazed and speechless. I love my son's transformation. I owe it to you.  Thank you!  I THANK GOD FOR YOU

 

Have a blessed day!

We just received another great review of our school!

We just received another great review from one of our parents! Mr. St. Louis wrote, "We just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge what a blessing the URCS & it's staff has been to our family over the past 10 years. Our daughter Evanna has attended the school since T-K & is now an 8th grader. Watching her development over the years both academically & spiritually has been 1 of the high lights of our lives & we know that the hard work, guidance & efforts of your teachers has played a pivotal part in this process & that's why we couldn't wait to get our 2nd princess Naomi started with you & she did start kindergarten this year & is already doing well. We also think that's important to note that your hard work is not going unnoticed by others, recently we decided to look at some other schools to see what else is being offered out there, long story short Evanna was accepted into the Waldorf School in garden city. This school is supposedly 1 of the top private prep schools in the state & they really wanted us to enroll her there offering us a lot of incentives, after a tour of the school we didn't see anything that wasn't being offered at Upper Room & not to mention it's not a Christian School. Oh & by the way did we forget to mention to 25,000 $ tuition, naturally it was a no brainer that we decided to keep her at Upper Room where she's getting a high quality education both spiritually & academically. Thank you again for all that you do & God willing we hope to work with you & your staff for many years to come to provide the excellence in education thru Christ that is truly a standard at URCS."
Sincerely: The St Louis Family Ivan, Taira, Evanna & Naomi

What Parents Say About Upper Room Christian School #11.

Mrs. Diane Keppel had this to say, " I sent my son to Upper Room Christian School to receive a Christ-centered education and to learn how to incorporate Jesus Christ into his daily living and relationships. My son loves Jesus Christ and he loves everything about Upper Room. He says he would never want to go to public school. Upper Room has been an extended family to him and has helped shape his beliefs and values. The school has been supportive to my child and myself. The teachers are genuinely concerned about my child and they keep in touch with me on a regular basis. I want to thank the Upper Room Christian School for the wonderful experience my son has had growing up with the guidance of the teachers and pastors."

Mrs. Keppel's son is one of this year's graduates and is going on to college in the fall. We will miss him but know that just like most of our graduates he'll be back whenever he's in the neighborhood to say hello to his extended family at Upper Room.
