Congratulations to the Class of 2011!

Please join us at the graduation to show the class your love and support. Graduation is Friday, June 24th at 7:00 p.m. in the Webster Bible Church Sanctuary.

From The Administrator’s Desk

As this school year comes to a close there are many important accomplishments to rejoice over and be thankful for: 1st – For God’s continued blessing and protection and for the freedom to proclaim the Word of God daily. 2nd – For the changed hearts and salvation decisions that have taken place throughout the school. 3rd – For each family who faithfully supports, prays and promotes this ministry. 4th - For the expressions of encouragement sent to the staff throughout the year. 5th – For each teacher and staff member who faithfully ministers to the students and families every day.

6th – Each new family who will be joining us in the fall. 7th – For each student who, by choice, desire to honor the Lord in their work and behavior. 8th – For the leadership of Webster Bible Church who throughout the year provide biblical direction, counsel and encouragement. 9th - For the tireless support of volunteers who help throughout the school. They go unnoticed but their efforts are critical to the work at WCS 10th - The list could go on!!! I am blessed with a fantastic, professional and unified staff and I want to express my personal thank you for their tireless ministry of love.

Mr. Keith Bell, Administrator

You make a difference in many lives, including mine. Sincerely,

Keith Bell

The Amazing Grace Race

The musical “The Amazing Grace Race” was performed by the elementary school on Tuesday, May 24th directed by music teacher, Miss Allison Bell. The students did an excellent job telling the story of young racers learning that the secret to running life's grace race is following in His steps but running in their own shoes. Congratulations students for a job well done!

The Sound of Music

Webster Christian School presented their first musical, "The Sound Of Music" on April 29th and 30th at 7:30pm in the Living Word Church auditorium with over 800 people in attendance. This classic and endearing musical is based on the book The Story of the Trapp Family Singers. It features an unforgettable Rodgers and Hammerstein score, including “My Favorite Things,”

Annual Carnival

This year’s carnival will be held on Friday, June 3rd. Please come out and support this fun-filled event! This year’s highlights include a dunk tank, two bounce houses, face painting, boom blasters, game-booths and lots of prizes! It’s an event you and your family don’t want to miss! Be sure to bring your friends and neighbors too! Volunteers are always appreciated. Please contact the office to find out how you can help. THANK YOU!

“Do-Re-Mi” and “Climb Every Mountain.” A spirited young postulant named Maria is sent to serve as a governess for Captain Von Trapp, a widower with seven children. Her unorthodox methods quickly win over the children but clash with the regimental conduct the Captain insists upon. Cast members included Rachael Forget (Maria), Ben DeVries

Re-Enrollment

As preparations for the new school year are underway, we are grateful for the current re-enrollment that is taking place. We are not quite at our goal yet, but do ask that you would continue to lift our need to increase enrollment up to our Heavenly Father. He is able to do “exceedingly abundantly above that which we can ask or think” (Ephesians 3:20).
