Fw: School Closing, Registration Refund Info, Office Changes

 
Calvary Christian School

Dear families of Calvary Christian School,

 

This morning, the congregation of Calvary Lutheran Church voted to approve the recommendation to close Calvary Christian School at the end of the 2016-17 school year.

 It is with deep sadness that this decision was reached!  Member after member of the Congregation got up and spoke of the impact that Calvary School had made in the lives of their family.  They also acknowledged that for the past 8-12 years they had seen this day coming.  Deficit budget after deficit budget had been passed until it is no longer possible to continue. 

 

REGISTRATION REFUNDS

If you have already registered for next year, your registration fee will be returned to you.  You have the option of either applying your paid fee to your monthly tuition or receiving a refund check.  Unless you notify us otherwise, we will apply your registration fee to upcoming payments.  If you would like to receive a check instead, please email accounting@calvaryslz.org.  Include your name, your students name, and the address to which you would like the check mailed.

 

SCHOOL OFFICE POLICY CHANGES

With all the items needing to be accomplished in preparing to close, the school office will only be open for the following needs:

 

Dropping off a student

Picking up a student

Dropping off lunches and items for your student

To speak with Dr. C. (Appointment needed)

 

Please plan your visits accordingly. 

 School Record Requests must come from a school, and will be sent directly to them.  School records are not (and never have been) released to a parent or individual.  This is the practice for all Educational facilities.

 I have been exceedingly proud of how our students have handled the past three weeks, since the first announcement of our closing!  How you handle and speak of today's final vote will go a long way in helping your student have the most positive educational experience through our final day.  I know that our teachers will continue to be diligent in making the most of each class.

 In closing, let me express what an honor and privilege it has been to have your student at Calvary!  The sadness of this day will only be eclipsed by the final day of school!  You are all in my prayers.

 In His Service,

Pastor Kelly

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
