The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace.

Numbers 6:24-26

Dear Prince Families:

We’re in the home stretch this week with kindergarten and high school graduations and everything in between. As we close out another academic year, I am reminded just how blessed we are to live, work, and raise children in a Christ-centered school community filled with faculty and families who are missionally aligned, who value a strong conservative Christian culture, and who understand the importance of partnering together to develop young men and women of faith, wisdom, and character. God’s blessings are beyond measure. Let’s have a strong finish to the school year.

In His service,

Col Seth Hathaway, Ed.D.

Head of School

Prince Avenue Christian School will hold the Graduation Ceremony for the Class of 2026 on Saturday, May 16th, at 10:00 am in the Prince Avenue Baptist Church Worship Center. Rev. Thomas Settles will give the charge to graduates.

Thomas C. Settles, III is the senior pastor of Calvary Bible Church in Athens, Georgia and also serves as the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Campus Director for the University of Georgia (UGA). He was born and raised in Chattanooga, Tennessee and surrendered his life to Christ as a 15-year-old. At age 20, he committed to full-time Christian ministry during his undergraduate sophomore year at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia.

Upon graduating from Morehouse College in 2003, Thomas enrolled at Beeson Divinity School of Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama and received his Master of Divinity. After completing his studies at Beeson, Thomas moved to Athens, Georgia, and he considers the Classic City to be home.

Thomas has a tremendous love for discipleship through the local church and is excited about equipping believers to go outside of the four walls of the church to minister. He is a supervising member of the University Religious Life Association at UGA and serves on the Board of Directors for The Food Bank of Northeast Georgia and Downtown Ministries.

Thomas is married to Avita, his wife and “co-laborer for life” of over 17 years. They are the grateful parents of four children, all of whom are enrolled at Prince Avenue Christian School.

The graduation ceremony will be available to view on live stream at www.pacslive.com.

HIGH SCHOOL REVIEW

& EXAM SCHEDULE:

The Prince Avenue Christian School 

2026 Summer Reading Lists and associated assignments

for lower, middle, and high school students have been posted.

All lists and assignments are posted on the

Prince Avenue website and are itemized by grade.

Also included are required summer assignments for Advanced Placement and Dual Enrollment courses.

Parents and students are encouraged to check the lists

and assignments early to ensure that all assignments are understood and that questions can be addressed.

LATE REGISTRATION IS AVAILABLE

Boys' Basketball Summer Training Week is an introduction for rising 9th-12th grade boys interested in playing next season. 

This week is the start to our summer workouts and games,

and anyone interested in trying out next season is encouraged to attend. Please email jdpowell@princeave.org for more information.  

IMPORTANT ATHLETICS DOCUMENT INFORMATION:

Prince Athletics is transitioning to a new online system for uploading and maintaining student physicals and athletic paperwork. While we have previously used Privit, we will now be using a new platform called Healthy Roster, which offers both an app and a website for easy access and communication.

Parents of all middle school and high school students will receive an email in the coming weeks with instructions on how to create their account and upload all required documents for the 2026–2027 school year.

Please note that all athletic paperwork for next school year must be uploaded into Healthy Roster by a parent or guardian, even if those documents were previously submitted through Privit.

We believe Healthy Roster will be a much more user-friendly system and will provide an easier avenue for communication between parents, coaches, and athletic administration.

As a reminder, students must have an up-to-date physical on file in order to participate in middle school or high school sports at Prince. This includes preseason and summer workouts, as well as all in-season practices and games.



If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Athletic Trainer Zeb Rogers at zrogers@princeave.org.
