From the Head of School
Intelligent people are always ready to learn. Their ears are open for knowledge. – Proverbs 18:15, NLT
The Bible tells us to be quick to listen and slow to speak (James 1:19) and to "in humility count others more significant than yourselves" (Philippians 2:3). Wise people bring humility to every conversation, seeking to learn and understand. However, in my mind I am often preparing a response rather than carefully listening to truly understand a different perspective. In our faculty discussions this week, we are talking about the importance of respecting diverse perspectives. Even though everyone in the King's community has a commitment to Jesus Christ as Lord, that does not mean we agree about everything. One of the benefits of an interdenominational school like King's is that we can grow in understanding differing perspectives on many issues within the body of Christ. But as believers, our foundation is the Word of God, not our own opinions. May we build a stronger King's community on the right foundation as we respectfully listen to our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Running of the Knights Fundraiser
Wednesday, May 7 | Rain Date: May 8 | TKCS
On Wednesday, May 7, 2025, the Parent Teacher Fellowship will sponsor Running of the Knights, a fun event to raise $50,000. This year, we are raising money for more gymnasium enhancements such as new flooring, bleachers, and repainting to match our school colors, which will benefit the entire school. The amount raised will determine how many improvements can be made. Students from PreK through 12th grade will walk and/or jog around the school during a 40-minute period. Each student will raise funds by asking sponsors to contribute a tax-deductible donation to The King's Christian School.
Sponsoring is easy. Visit our fundraising page on 99Pledges and enter the student's name in the search box. Any size donation helps! Share the link with family and friends and on social media to encourage them to support your student and our school!
Families are welcome to come out and cheer on the runners during the event. Prizes will be awarded for participation as well as for students who raise the most money. Snack prizes will be awarded for participation during the fundraiser. Questions or food allergy concerns, email [ptf@tkcs.org].
