Tonight's the Night!

A parent called last week to confirm their final decision on placement for their oldest child who will begin school this fall. We had met during the interview process, discussed the merits of the 'Young Fives' program and talked about the beginning of the education journey. I couldn't help but share how fast the time would go and before they knew it - she would be graduating.


Tonight, parents, grandparents and friends will sit in the auditorium and confirm the same sentiments I shared with these new parents. "It goes by so quickly."


Five years from now, when these graduates reflect on their time at Tri-unity Christian School, they will reminisce about lasting friendship, things they did in class, wins and losses in the gym fondly referred to as 'The Box', missions trips to the Dominican Republic or New Orleans, working the hot lunch program, classes they took, and things they wished they had done differently.


However, what will bubble up most frequently is the teacher(s) who cared enough to listen, encourage their dreams, and pray for their future. It will be a memory of someone who reflected the Love of Christ.

Join us tonight and experience the essence of a Spirit-filled educational environment. You won't want to miss the evidence of things promised.

Give a Cheer

Did you get to see the Cinderella production? Did your child participate in the regional Math Olympics? How about the 5th/3rd Youth Run last week? Did you happen to see the recent Power Puff which raised over $350.00 for the Dominican Republic water filtration system? Oh and by the way, there is an annual chess tournament in the fifth grade classroom each year. Guess who isn't a better chess player than a fifth grader!

Each week a good news update goes out to our email subscribers. Included are the things we have to celebrate about our students at Tri-unity Christian School.

The cast of Cinderella performed to record attendance at our new building. I saw them opening night and thought they were phenomenal. I heard their last performance was stellar!

Did you know 70% of our student participants at Math Olympics placed, with three of them receiving medal honors?

Last Wednesday at the youth run, each runner ( the majority of the elementary students participated) wore a blue shirt celebrating their commitment to Christ, school and fitness. There are a lot of memories to share about how your children demonstrated Christ. In fact, we are starting to make our mark ... "Hey, there's that Tri-unity Team" was echoed.

Did I already mention we have a lot to celebrate ...

Dietrich Bonhoeffer once said, " Action springs not from thought, but from a readiness for responsibility". Thank you for allowing us to partner with you in preparing your kids for L.I.F.E..

Blessings,
