School Plans for 2012-13
The School Liaison Team (SLT) has been meeting with the pastors and teachers of Peace Lutheran School to finalize plans for the 2012-13 school year. With the departure of Mr. Kuske, a number of administrative and teaching options are being considered to make sure that we continue to provide a high quality Christian education experience for our children. After receiving input at the Thursday, June 14 forum from parents and others, the SLT will make a recommendation to the Mission and Ministry Team for final discussion and approval of the plan by July 1.
If you haven't yet registered your child for next year... Please turn in your registration paperwork ASAP!!
