Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for,

the conviction of things not seen.

Dear Prince Families,


New faculty members joined us last week for orientation, and returning faculty are on campus tomorrow as we all prepare to teach and disciple your children. Facilities worked diligently throughout the summer to ensure the campus is in exceptional condition, and lower school students are going to LOVE the playground upgrade.


Please reference your family's Wolverine Welcome time below (reminder to lower school families: your Parent Orientation [no children] is Thursday night and your Wolverine Welcome is Friday morning – this is a new format).


Cell Phones. Here is another friendly reminder that Prince is now a cell phone-free campus from PreK through 12th grade (we are confident our high school students will survive). And to our high school men - if your barber/stylist has been wondering where you've been…it's time. We love the clean-cut look on campus. 



Please consider praying that God would bless our students and teachers with a rich and meaningful school year. While we work exceedingly hard to prepare students for college, our greater prayer is that through our family-school partnership, we will faithfully point your children to trust and follow Jesus. One week to go before we get started!


With warm regards and in His service,

 

Seth Hathaway, Ed.D.
