EAGLE RIDGE SCHOOL AIMS AT MORAL VALUES

It won't be long before the Christian Faith Fellowship's Eagle Ridge Christian School is ready for occupancy. Supporters recently got an opportunity to tour the construction site along Route K as part of an on-going fund-raising campaign.

The school is badly needed. It will house more than twice the number of students attending Eagle Ridge this year. They attend classes at two locations, including a rented building that is badly crowded.

Although the school and church are legally separate, the church regards the school as a mission of the church. The idea is to provide an education grounded in Christianity, and no students are admitted unless they or at least one of their parents has made a profession of their Christian faith.

Eagle Ridge and other area parochial schools give parents a choice in education and serve a valuable role in the moral upbringing of their children. It, therefore, is only right that a religious commitment be expected.
