Warrior News

Dear Warrior Nation,

When tragedy strikes, nothing is more heartwarming than seeing folks step up, pitch in, and help out where necessary.  That has been evident for the past two days as so many of you have dropped off critical supplies to support the Damascus Fire Department.  We are so incredibly grateful and blessed to partner with you in this event and we are thankful to TORP Chassis and Langley Speedway for taking the lead in this effort.  This is a great example of this week’s ESO – Team Player.  As Proverbs 27:17 says, “Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another.”  As a team player, our students should display humility toward others, accept responsibility and honor their commitments, take initiative and strive for excellence, and exhibit a growth mindset to adapt and seek continual growth.  Displaying humility includes having a servant mindset, and our students saw firsthand this week what that looks like when Christ-followers band together for a cause greater than themselves.  This is truly the heart of Christ – so go out and be his hands and feet today!

Our Parent Volunteer Committee has been actively planning upcoming opportunities to bless our teachers and staff and brainstorm ideas for future community events. But they could use your help! Volunteering is a great way to connect with other parents and serve the school community. If you are interested in serving this way, please get in touch with Amber Verheul at amberlverheul@gmail.com. The time commitment is as involved as you can participate, and it is a great way to say “thank you” to our awesome teachers and support staff.

Support our teachers with just a few clicks! RCS is teaming up with Box Tops for Education to provide additional funds for teacher classroom needs.  To get started, simply download the Box Tops for Education app from your app store, create your account, and search for Richmond Christian School by zip code (23832).

Thank you, Warrior Nation, for your unwavering support in our mission to secure a bright future for our children. Your commitment and involvement are truly inspiring, and we are honored to have you by our side on this journey!

All 4 Him!
