Principal’s Corner

Tuesday was a historic day for our country as Barack Obama was sworn in as President of the United States. With the inauguration of Barack Obama the United States of America is taking a giant step forward, in terms of civil rights. Isn’t it truly a blessing from God to live in a country where a change in government leadership takes place peacefully? No matter what our political persuasion may be, you will no doubt agree that the right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness belongs to all. We pray that God will bless our country under the leadership of President Obama and guide him to make decisions that will be God-pleasing.
