Cleft of the Rock Foundation has worked tirelessly for the past three years on developing its very own curriculum: Disciplines for Life (D4L). Disciplines for Life is designed to address critical disciplines required for continuous growth and development in life. Our goal is to provide a holistic environment for students to learn and grow critical skills to enhance their lives. Students will practice Intentionality, Self-Control, Boundaries, Time and Money Management, Good Judgment, Responsibility, and Leadership which will translate into Disciplines for Life. |

There's nothing quite like being with family, making memories, and sharing love. This book has all three!
Koala gets to spend the weekend with his favorite person in the whole world:
GRANDMA!
No one hugs, bakes treats, reads, snuggles, or plays games quite like she does. And when it’s time to say goodbye, Grandma shows that she’s the best at wiping tears.
But it's not always possible to visit our loved ones in person. Find out how Grandma and Koala share their love even when they're apart.
Includes a letter to a loved one, a family tree to fill out, and get to know you questions for grandparents and grandchildren in the back of the book to help get kids excited about family history.

Parenting on Purpose
Support Sessions
Cleft of the Rock Foundation, Inc. has officially started our Parenting on Purpose Support Sessions. If you have completed the Parenting on Purpose video series we invite you to participate. We are committed to supporting each family we encounter. We recognize that in these times, as parents, it’s incredibly difficult to plan ahead or fit self-improvement into our already jam-packed schedules. From commutes to our destinations, extra-curricular activities, work and/or overtime, or a million other time-consumers, it can seem impossible to keep your head above water, much less commit to getting somewhere. Even if you will leave that somewhere fulfilled, refreshed, and better equipped to parent deliberately. The good news is, we can schedule time for a Parenting On Purpose Support Session (POPS), led by Brenda Williams, a wise and amazing mother and grandmother who is committed to growing families. Reply to this email to schedule your session today.
