NEW HEADMASTER FOR CCS
The school
committee and session are pleased that Mr. Rick
Robertson has accepted the call to serve as the
headmaster of Covenant Christian
School. He and his wife, Patti, will be joining
us the first week of May so that Rick may start
to establish relationships with the church and
school communities and ensure a smooth
transition with the current administration.
God has
blessed us by answering our prayers for a new
headmaster who has years of administrative
experience and a strong financial background.
Please pray
for Rick and Patti as they prepare to move to
our area. Pray specifically for the sale of
their house.
