Honoring Principal Philip Ackland
First, we want to share a significant milestone. Our beloved Principal, Rev. Philip Ackland, has announced his retirement. We want to extend our deepest gratitude to him for his dedicated time, unwavering leadership, and spiritual guidance throughout his years with us. Phil has been an immense blessing to our faculty, students, and families alike. Please join us in thanking him and wishing him the very best as he steps into this next well-deserved chapter of life!

As we look to the future, we are thrilled to announce that the Lord has blessed us with several new and exciting teachers who will be joining our team for the upcoming school year! We are also overjoyed to welcome back some familiar faces, including Mrs. Sharon Barnes, who will be returning to our halls to pour back into our students.
