The View From Here
Parent Mixer – November 13, 2021
It has been too long since we’ve had the opportunity to bring the entire King’s Way Family together. With guidelines in place, we have the opportunity to do so on Saturday, November 13th. With the theme Let’s Talk About Our Kids, we are inviting you to be a part of the 2021 Parent Mixer.
While this is not a fundraising event, the evening will provide you an opportunity to hear about the school’s current and future direction, as well as enjoy good food, entertainment, and meet new and old friends.
Any and all parents in the King’s Way family are invited. The per person ticket price is $25 and dinner will be served. Event ends at 9pm.
The Gift of Memories
You may have seen Development Director Terry Stokesbary at various events with his camera. Terry has been trying to get around campus and to all the events to capture moments and memories to share with our King’s Way families. Photos from our gallery site, SmugMug, can be downloaded for free, or you can order prints directly from SmugMug. Usually it takes about 3-5 days from an event for the photo to populate on this site. We hope that you will enjoy seeing your children thriving at King’s Way.
Investing in the Kingdom
At King’s Way, we strive to foster a culture of giving. This is evident in the ongoing support from our families, alumni, staff & faculty and community members that believe in the power of Christian education to transform lives and prepare students for lives of faith, leadership and service in the classroom, in competition, and in their communities.
King’s Way has great plans to broaden the impact that we can have in our community and in the lives of students. Our development team works to build more deep and meaningful relationships, create impactful experiences, and to play our part in growing the Kingdom.
