They dodged, ducked, dipped, and dove! The 2nd annual Dodgeball with Dads was a blast! Congratulations to Team Purple for winning 1st Place!
And the Best Dressed Dad Award went to

Last, but not least, thanks to all the Mom and Alumni Volunteers that helped make it a success. It was such a fun evening with our Dads!

Dear Families,
Happy April! It is hard to believe we are in the last quarter of the school year. As we embrace this season of growth, we are excited to share the amazing things God is doing here at Family of Christ. Our mobile computer lab is ready to use, and our ministry trailer has been purchased and is being built as week speak. Thank you Walk-A-Thon donors! Our pavilion is moving right along, and a lot of progress has been made. We are also expanding and growing! We are opening a second kindergarten class for the 2025-2026 school year and have hired our beloved Ms. Carley as our new kindergarten teacher. So many amazing things are moving, all glory to God. This month, we celebrate Easter, a time of reflection and gratitude for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. What a beautiful month April is. Thank you for your unwavering support and partnership in fostering the spiritual, academic, and personal growth of our students. May this month be filled with blessings, joy, and peace.
Reagan Colley, Interim Principal

| | Please refrain from signing out your children after 2:30 pm. The end of the day is as important as the beginning of the day, so children should stay in class. Parents should notify teachers and office staff of dates and times of early dismissal. | Please check out our clothes closet in the sanctuary. The drawers have been restocked and are overflowing with FREE uniform tops and bottoms. Child sizes to adult are available. Drawers are labeled by size. Grab at least four uniform tops as students wear their spirit shirt/shorts we provide on Fridays. Sweatshirts and sweaters are also available free of charge. | | | | |
