POISE FOUNDATION SCHOLARSHIPS
Application Process now open for Pre-K, K-12, and OSTC
March 1 - April 30, 2018
POISE Foundation assists families with tuition, fees and other related costs, in order to provide opportunities to seek the education best suited for their children. The Foundation typically receives more applications than funding will support and, accordingly, scholarships are very competitive. Additionally, recipients of scholarships are only eligible once during their calendar year.

A MESSAGE FROM MRS. POWERS
Dear Parents,
In a few weeks, we will celebrate the most important event in the history of the world; the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Upcoming classroom discussions and chapels will guide children's hearts as we prepare for Easter. At Eden, we are honored to partner with you in teaching your children the truth of God's Word.
You are invited to join our
Easter Chapel led by Mrs. Hoban’s 6th grade students on Wednesday, March 28, at 2:00 pm.
"
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life
." John 3:16
In Christ,
Carrie A. Powers
Elementary Principal
