What you like most about being a teacher and called worker: 1 Peter 1:8-9, “Though you have not seen him, you love him; and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls.” It is a joyous privilege to share this message.
Your message to parents considering St. Paul’s school: Besides an A+ academic education and families sharing common values, your child will have the awesome opportunity to learn from a Christ centered perspective. Class sizes are small and individual attention is given. Students will form life-long friendships with Christ at the center.
