SEPTEMBER 6, 2024
WELCOME BACK!
What a fun and exciting start to the school year! It was wonderful to see all our students gathered in the commons for our traditional first-day photo. From athletes giving their all on the court and field to students eager to learn in the hallways, the energy on campus is truly uplifting. I’m especially grateful for how warmly our community has welcomed the many new faces this year, and with over 240 students, the enthusiasm is unmistakable. As we embark on this journey, we are thankful for God’s provision thus far and ask for your prayers and support. If you’re interested in being a part of our year, we welcome volunteers and substitute teachers to join us in nurturing our students’ growth. I look forward to seeing each of our students develop strong roots in their faith throughout the year ahead.
Attention – Parent Meeting Monday Sept. 9 at 2:30pm!
Join us for a Parent Meeting on September 9, 2024, at 2:30 PM in the FCS Commons. Each parent who attends raises $5 for the Eagle Nation Booster Club—just by showing up! No mattress sales required.
This quick meeting will share details about our upcoming mattress sale on October 5th and how you can help make it a success. The Booster Club funds athletics for all grades, supporting playground equipment, gym needs, sports gear, and more. See you Monday to help support our students!
Faith Christian School’s Athletic Boosters (Eagle Nation) is hosting their 1st Annual Mattress Sale Fundraiser on Oct. 5, 10am-3pm and we need your help to spread the word! We earn $50 for every Twin sold, $75 for every Full, $100 for every Queen and $125 for every King sold. Personal invites are the best way to get people in the door that day. Please take every opportunity to share the event with people. See our Facebook Event, tag or email your friends and family, share with your church!
School Picture Day is Tuesday, September 10th
We’ve partnered with Kimberly Linden Photography, known for taking school photos outdoors to create a natural, relaxed atmosphere. This helps capture authentic smiles and provides a professional photography feel. However, living in the Midwest means weather can sometimes be unpredictable. If needed, photos will be taken indoors using a neutral grey backdrop, which enhances all skin tones and clothing colors beautifully. If you haven’t received an email from the photographer, please contact the school office.
Tickets Releasing Soon – Don’t Miss Out!
Chapel News
This week Mr. Hodges introduced the theme “Rooted,” focusing on trusting the Lord, as described in Jeremiah 17:7-8, and how trust grows over time. He also outlined this year’s sermon series on the Armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), with each chapel exploring a different element. Guest speakers will help deepen our understanding. During Friday’s Eagle Time, students will read Ephesians in small groups. Next week, Mr. Goralski will preach on the parable of the four soils.
Come join us any time for a Secondary Chapel on Thursdays at 10:00 am.

Maintenance Wish List
Now that we have a full-time Facilities Director in place, we’re excited to get our maintenance shop fully up and running. To keep our tools organized and ready for use, we’re in need of a functional tool chest. If you have one you’re willing to donate or are looking to part with, we’d be incredibly grateful for your support. Your generosity will help us keep our school in top shape! Please contact the school office if you can help. Thank you!
