Providence COVID Update
As a result of last weekend’s social gatherings we now have 11 confirmed COVID-19 cases in Upper School. All of these cases have occurred from contact outside of the school. However, there were COVID-19 positive students that were not yet known that came to school Monday. Contact tracing has proven to us that since masks are worn in the school, the COVID-19 exposure on Monday resulted with zero positive cases to date. None of us like masks but the facts show us that masks are working in our community. We ask our community to continue to wear masks when in large settings of people. Please thoughtfully consider not allowing your child to attend a Halloween gathering. If you allow it, please require them to wear a mask. This will prevent another shift to virtual learning. We have continually sanitized the school daily so our students will return to a very safe environment. God Bless! Have a good and safe weekend.
Homecoming 2020
The 2020 Homecoming game was a great success. The football team defeated Zarephath Academy 21-20 in a close match-up. The Seniors dominated in the Volleyball and Powderpuff games. Though a smaller attendance, our Alumni enjoyed great food, fellowship, and football game. Homecoming Photo Gallery.

2020 Food Drive
The Spanish and French Honor Society students are taking on this project and working with New Life Christian Fellowship to prepare for a harvest of blessings to the local community. In order to ensure that the pantry is filled with items of greatest need and desire, we are appointing particular items to each grade level and asking that you only bring in those particular products. This will ensure that the pantry is balanced and stocked with everything to help sustain the less fortunate right here in Jacksonville. Thank you in advance for partnering with us in this opportunity to love God by loving others! Read More.
