"Thank
You" from Children and Parents:
|
| "I
would like to extend my sincerest thanks and
gratitude to you for awarding my son a scholarship
toward his tuition. This school has been the
guiding light and most helpful when my son went
through a rough time in his life. I know my son
is in a very caring, loving and safe environment
and this means the world to me since I am a single
parent and the majority of my day is spent at
work. Thank you again for giving my son the opportunity
of having the best Christian education."
"Thank you
for the wonderful supplies for our classroom.
They really help a lot. The book are good
because they have color pictures and it's
fun to learn with them."

"Thank
you for the new desks. Now we can fit all of
our books in our desks and our stuff doesn't
fall out."
"I am one
of those kids with a learning disability
problem. Having a learning disability does
not mean that you are "stupid." It means
that you learn in a different way than
is taught to you. I'm glad that you made
it possible for me to work with teachers
in a special program right in my own Lutheran
school."
"Your organization
is truly a blessing to our family. Words
cannot express the joy of our family's
being granted this scholarship. Your help
will enable our children to continue their
Christian education and growth in Christ."

"Thank
You" from Principals and Teachers:

"Thank you for
your terrific gift to our roof project. We are
at the point where we can actually contract for
repair of the worst and largest portion of our
roof. By doing it at this time we can keep ahead
of the cold weather and have a leakproof school
this winter."
(Principal)
"Your grant
was like a gift from heaven. It allowed us
the opportunity to extend financial aid to
seven children in four of our neediest families.
It will also allow us to purchase desperately
needed textbooks, art supplies and computer
software."
(Principal)
"Your grant
for the purchase of new math textbooks and
the painting of the school halls is greatly
appreciated. This financial help has enabled
us to keep our textbooks current without
passing on the costs to our parents. This,
in turn, has helped us keep the students
we have."
(Principal)
"Students
who have never had the opportunity to work
with computers are learning to utilize its
full range of possibilities. The computer
has enabled them to quickly research information
in the computer encyclopedia. We thank all
of you for bringing this opportunity to our
school."
(Teacher)

"Your grant serves
many important purposes -- letting our school's
staff, students and congregation know that other
people feel urban ministry is important and necessary."
(Principal)
"Because of
your generous grant for this school year,
four needy families are receiving financial
assistance through your scholarship funding.
We [also] purchased*much needed early childhood
equipment for our Preschool/Child Care Center
with your grant monies. The biggest thrill
for me came when I told all of our teachers
that they had $100 to spend any way they
would like for material for their classrooms."
(Principal)
"We have a
hard working, dedicated staff. We have parents
who are willing to volunteer their services
to keep our school in good repair, doing
major cleaning (washing walls, scrubbing
bathrooms, mopping and waxing floor, etc.).
We have children who are wonderful and eager
to learn. Unfortunately, our budget is slim.
This is where you come into the picture.
The staff, the parish school board, the parents,
students and I would like to thank you from
the bottom of our hearts for all you have
made possible."
(Principal)
"Thanks seem
so little to say when you have helped in
so many ways to keep our little school open
in a time when so many are closing. Give
our thanks to all who are responsible."
