A Note From the Board

Posted on May 2, 2012 by timpritchett

Greetings New Hope Family,

On behalf of the board I wish to say thank you for taking the time to respond to our recent online questionnaire.  Your input was most helpful in giving us a general sense of the thoughts and feelings of our New Hope Family with respect to the new direction in which our school is going.  While certainly, and thankfully, some of the comments pointed out areas in which we need to continue to improve, the overwhelming impression was that our New Hope families are pleased.  A great deal of the credit for this goes to our interim administrator, Mr. Ernie Stone.  Ernie has worked very very hard and we appreciate him tremendously.  In all honesty, if the Lord had not given us Ernie it would have been very difficult, if not impossible, for us to be where we are, doing what we are doing.  Thank you Ernie.

At present the board is working hard to lay firm foundations for moving forward in pursuit of our mission of equipping students for lives that are pleasing to Jesus.  Some of that work involves building a solid structure for board operations; that is, developing policies that will govern and guide the daily operations of the school under the direction of our administrator.  We appreciate your prayers for us in this regard.

New Hope Christian School is a gift from God.  It is an instrument that He has raised up for the purpose of equipping those students that He sends us for lives that are productive in His vineyard.  We are glad that you are part of that.  And we thank you for the role that you are playing.

Serving together with you,

Guy Shields, Board chairman
