Schools Week is underway!
Lutheran schools throughout the United States are celebrating Lutheran
education and ways of sharing that in their communities this week,
March 7-13. Under the theme, “Securing Each Child’s Future – For a
Lifetime of Service,” schools celebrate and share in a variety of
ways. LCMS congregations operate the largest Protestant parochial
school system in America. Recent school statistics show that the LCMS
has 2,444 schools with an enrollment of 255,176 students (PS – 12th
grade). LCMS schools focus on educating the whole child; physically,
mentally, and spiritually. What a great blessing our Grace
Lutheran School is.
Unanimous Voice for the
Future of Grace School
Members of
Grace voted unanimously
to adopt a staffing and educational design
for implementation
next school year.
A proposal recommended by the Board for Elementary
Education and
outlined thoroughly by Teacher
Annette Rudick was questioned at length by a large
Voters Assembly. The result was unqualified approval.
The Voters approved the addition of one half-time educator
for a total
of two full-time teachers and two half-time
teachers next year.
The Voters also concurred with a recommendation from the Executive
Board to maintain
the 2010, previously approved Budget, including the accustomed Mission
support which has
long been the stewardship practice of Grace Lutheran Church.
The serious attention, careful preparation, and united spirit of the
members was a great joy
to all of us for which we thank and praise our Lord. All those
present exemplified one of the
Scripture lessons from this morning's Divine Service ......
"As it is, there are many parts, yet one body ... Now you are the
body of Christ." (1 Cor. 12)
