The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon and tell him, “We have found the Messiah” (that is, the Christ). And he brought him to Jesus.

Dear Prince Families:

We are pleased to report we had several professions of faith at last week’s middle school retreat in the North Georgia Mountains, and our varsity football players and cheerleaders returned safely Saturday morning from their away game in Pensacola, Florida, following a decisive victory over Pensacola Catholic High School.

Thank you for the strong start towards our Annual Fund goal of $700,000; we are at 23% of our goal following last week’s “Prince on the Green” event. As a reminder, the annual fund supports our school budget by making up the difference between what we charge you in tuition and what it actually costs to educate your student (this year, that difference is $733 per student). If you missed last week’s annual fund kickoff event, please consider giving a gift here to support our school’s mission.

With warm regards and in His service,

Col Seth Hathaway, Ed.D.

THANK YOU FOR GIVING GENEROUSLY

Fall is in the air!

Last Monday night, Prince families gathered to enjoy cotton candy, sliding, swinging, climbing, jumping, and catching up with friends!

I am excited to report that $161,232 has been GIVEN or PLEDGED to the 2023-2024 ANNUAL FUND through this event! Remember our GOAL for the year is $700,000.

A HUGE THANK YOU TO OUR FAMILIES WHO HAVE ALREADY GIVEN!
