Because of this, there will be NO SCHOOL on Wednesday, February 15. Please be in prayer for this meeting.
THANK YOU: We want to thank Robin Dubravetz and her staff for the excellent job they do in serving lunch and overseeing the entire program. We received a 98 from the health inspector this week, and that is a testimony to the lunch workers’ diligence and commitment to excellence!
