For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher

than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Dear Prince Families:

Great job navigating last week’s busy homecoming schedule! This is our last week of the first quarter, so please work with your student to ensure that any missing work is submitted. We are currently at 39% of our Annual Fund goal, and we need everyone's participation to help us close the gap between what we charge to educate our students and the actual cost. Let’s make this a purposeful and productive week as we conclude the first quarter.

With warm regards and in His service,

Col Seth Hathaway, Ed.D.
