Believe in Books
We collected 1,128 books for our first mission project. Thank you for helping to exceed our goal. Way to go!
Chapel
We are having an issue with some of the speakers in the gym not working properly. This is causing us to move our seating to just one side of the bleachers. Until we are able to get the speakers fixed we will not be able to invite parents or other guests to our Chapel services. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Early Dismissal
Lower School Dismissal begins at 11:45 on Wednesday, October 18th and we will be closed on Thursday and Friday. Please pray for our teachers and admin as we head to Orlando for our FACCS Teacher Convention.

MIDDLE SCHOOL NEWS

Attendance: Students attending school is of the utmost importance for their academic success. Following our school’s attendance policy is a requirement of the Florida Tax Credit Scholarship (FTC), the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Educational Options (FES-EO), and the Family Empowerment Scholarship for Students with Unique Abilities (FES-UA). Students who do not adhere to our policy may jeopardize receiving these funds in the future. The ECS attendance policy in our handbook for middle and high school states: “If a student accrues 10 or more absences (excused or unexcused) in a semester in any class, extra work will be given for the student to complete in order for him/her to pass the class. The amount of work given will depend upon the number of absences. Failure to complete the additional work before the end of the semester will constitute a failure for the semester.”
