3 WHY? Most of you would not be here if you did not already have an understanding of why a Christian High School is important for our students and our community. The road to establishing a high school promises to be long and challenging, so it is important we remember our purpose and calling. We will need to stand united in faith and purpose and be coordinated in service

4 WHY? Deuteronomy 6:5-7 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road, when you lie down and when you get up.

5 WHY? Ephesians 6:4 Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Ektrephō (ek-tre'-fō) - to nourish up to maturity Paideia (pī-dā'-ä) - the whole training and education of children - which aims at increasing virtue
