Dear Middle School Community:

An email was circulated this week highlighting a student who is looking out for others in our middle school:

"I've never done this but I'd like to spotlight a student who has demonstrated the heart of Christ.  I've watched as this student has befriended those who feel a bit more on the outside and helped those who are new, feel a part of the community of our school.  On Valentines Day,  this student went out of her way to make a Valentine gift for each international student. She has a heart for those who may not feel as connected, and has had a major impact!"

In His Service,
Joseph Rowland
