Eagle Update - August 2022

Madison Christian School August 2022 Newsletter

Welcome to the Madison Christian 2022-2023 school year! As we prepare to receive each student, our prayer is to honor the Lord with every word and action. In Colossians 3:17, the Apostle Paul writes, "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." This is a high standard, but one we will strive for each day.

We desire to fulfill the MCS mission to partner with parents and churches to lead students toward God, scripturally educating the whole person spiritually, academically, emotionally, socially, and physically to become strong Christian leaders. Thank you for your trust and partnership as we embark on another exciting school year!

Whether you are a new or a returning student, we want to make sure you and your family feel prepared for the first day of school on August 17th! Visit our Back to School Resources page to help you find everything you may need to know -- information about Parent Orientation on Monday, August 15, supply lists, and more.
