Dear Prince Families:
We are rapidly approaching our 100th day of school, and we are going to celebrate that achievement with the students on January 26th (details below)! Last week was BUSY! In addition to our regular routine, lower school students that achieved “Head of School” and “Principal” Honor Rolls were recognized in lower school chapel; our fine arts department kicked off its Empty Bowls Auction to benefit the Bigger Vision Community Shelter in Athens; we constructed an “I have a dream” wall from student notecards in recognition of tomorrow’s MLK Day; and athletic practices and competitions for lower, middle, and high school went into the evening hours. We have been, and will remain, an active school community.
Your cooperation and patience as we weather the expected increase in COVID-19 cases following the Christmas break have been critical to our success. When we return this Tuesday, six students will be quarantined due to positive tests, and fifty-four will be quarantined due to contact tracing. We are cautiously optimistic we are at the highpoint of infections from the holiday break, and our policies and procedures continue to serve our community well. We could not ask for more respectful and compliant students as we navigate these waters; your children remain excellent ambassadors for your families.
I am pleased to report our middle school building project is moving forward as we work with our general contractor on the new 18,500 sq ft facility. The vision for this project could not have become a reality without your sacrificial and generous contributions, which are helping to strategically position our school to meet the needs of our students for the next five to eight years. Through our partnership, we are educating and equipping the next generation of Christian families, and to Him be the glory!
With warms regards and in His service,
