Dear Junior High Families,
In junior high, we’ve seen so much transformation happening...students stepping into leadership, serving others, and growing in responsibility and faith. This week especially reminded us of the strength of our community as we come alongside one another in prayer, learning, and service. With the Modesto Gospel Mission Coat Drive nearing its final week, our students are living out generosity in meaningful ways. Thank you for partnering with us as we guide them through these formative years.
In His service,
Cindy Alavezos
Junior High Principal
