Are You Our Next Pre-K Teacher?

Or do you know who is?


Dear LA Families,


Due to her broken foot, a needed surgery, and several days a week of required rehab, Mrs. Bean is sadly leaving us from teaching Pre-K. We need to hire a new Pre-K teacher and we need to do so SOON!

We need someone who is organized and structured, loves children, is patient, and desires to work and serve children in a Christ-centered environment.

Do you know someone who would be a good fit? Is it you!?

Please help us fill this position by praying with us and maybe it is you we should hire!? Maybe you know the perfect fit.

Here is the application link.

Thank you!

Warrior Day Report!

What a great day we had all together on Friday!

The school was split up into Navy and White teams, with House Fortis and House Veritas against House Fidelis and House Invicta. Like always, it was full of fun competitions and games, donated pizza from Simple Simons, and silly challenges for the whole teams!

A special shout-out to our team of amazing teachers and staff who put the whole day together. Our students make it all worth it!



Here's a Recap of Our Parent Encouragement Shared at Scholar Induction:


The Anxious Generation

Parents try to lay down rules and enforce limits, but there are just so many devices, so many arguments about why a rule needs to be relaxed, and so many ways around the rules, that family life has come to be dominated by disagreements about technology. Maintaining family rituals and basic human connections can feel like resisting an ever-rising tide, one that engulfs parents as well as children.


“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6 ESV


“When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways.” 1 Corinthians 13:11 

Tips for Moving Forward

  • Make the foundation sure. A Christ-centered home built according to the timeless principles of God’s written Word.

  • As much as possible, build consistency and structure into your daily routines.

  • Start a conversation with your children that builds trust and honesty.

    • Ask them what they learned today.

    • Ask about the favorite part of their day.

    • Ask them how you can pray for them.

  • Be actively involved in a Bible-based, Christ-centered church community that is helping all members of the family grow and develop spiritually.

  • Pray with, pray for, pray into your family the presence & promises of God.
