From Our Head of School
Dear Prince Families:

Due to the excellent health of our student body following spring break, we are accelerating our timeline for demasking, and we will be MASK “OPTIONAL” STARTING TOMORROW! Some students and families will elect to remain in masks for a sundry of reasons (underlying health issues in immediate or extended family, etcetera); it is important as a community we embrace that wearing or not wearing a mask at school is now a personal decision, and to treat everyone in a kind and polite way regardless of their decision. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we make this change.

Also, thank you PTF volunteers for helping us with morning car line this coming week as part of our “Teacher Care Plan,” and we look forward to seeing you at 7:30 tomorrow morning at school for “training.” I’m confident you’re overqualified and that you’ll have fun by showing your appreciation for our teachers in this way!

Everyone is invited to our new middle school groundbreaking ceremony this Thursday at 2:30 at the middle school build site. It will be a short and memorable ceremony asking God for His blessing on that project and thanking you for your faithfulness in making that vision a reality.

In His service,
Seth Hathaway, Ed.S.

Dear Parents,

This final stretch of the school year is always full of excitement, but it can be easy to let the excitement steal our focus and attention from our walk with Christ. 

This past week in High School Chapel, we encouraged our students to pursue Jesus in these types of in-between moments and to not wish away the season the Lord has given us. We focused on Jeremiah 29 where the Lord called Israel to settle down and live faithful lives in a foreign land but never lose hope that God would bring them the future He promised. 

Please join me in praying for our students, especially our seniors, that they would not miss out on what God is doing in their lives over the next few weeks!
