Preschool News
Live Like Easton Bike-a-Thon
May 4, 2017
Our students had so much fun riding their bikes. All money raised will go toward a scholarship in memory of Easton Cain.

Christian Formation
If the Resurrection did happen, there must be some difference not only in our lives, but also for the world. What is the hope when faced with
death, decay, and brokenness? How can one survive the destructive powers of this world?
The answer to this question involves a journey into the tomb and an emergence out of it. Join us in our Christian formation time at 9:30 on May 14 as we start this eight-week focus on the Practices of Resurrected Life.

Easton Cain Memorial Preschool Garden
The front of the Preschool has been re-landscaped and dedicated as the Easton Cain Memorial Garden. The project was spearheaded by preschool teacher Beth Casey and her husband, Officer Chris Casey of the White County Sheriff's department. Preschool teacher Diane Dean also contributed by painting the little boy concrete figure to represent Easton in his preschool shirt. Some of the plants were donated by the Cain family. The garden will be an interactive garden for the preschool students to plant and pick fresh herbs. Thank you Miss Beth and Chris!

Please send your greetings c/o Tari Watson, 23 Cameo Drive, Flat Rock, NC 28731. For a map to the party, please see

Congratulations to Lucy Alexander
April Middle School Indian of the Month

Seventh grader Lucy Alexander of Sautee Nacoochee was named an Indian of the Week by track and field coach Scott Neal.

"Lucy trained hard throughout the season, set goals, and pursued excellence while being a tremendous teammate and role model."
