such as smaller class sizes, which for me is a huge plus. This
is an important choice. It had an impact on my family and I
wouldn’t be where I am today if it was not for the levy.
To conclude, I do support the levy, I will be voting yes on
the levy, and I hope that others will follow in my path. We do
indeed have some of the greatest schools in the region, and it
would be a shame to see them suffer financially. I would like to
thank you for your time.

999 Public Notice

To the Editor:
While Sisters Country is blessed with wonderful public
schools, some local families, like many throughout the U.S.,
choose a different course for their children’s education — such
as home schooling or private schools. Reasons for doing so
vary, but often parents are seeking something extra for their
children. This frequently includes enrichment of their children’s
education with elements of Christian teaching that are absent
from public schools due to legal constraints.
Sisters Christian Academy offers local families the option
of an accredited private education with emphasis on Christian
values, for children in pre-K through eighth grade. SCA serves
families looking for smaller classes with closer student/teacher
interaction, as well as families who might wish to home-school
but who lack time or resources to meet home-schooling’s
demanding requirements.

s
From my own experience of volunteer teaching at SCA and
having grandchildren who attended there, I can attest to the ben-
efits of including Christian elements within the curriculum. I am
referring not only to biblical teachings and belief in God, but to
a heavy emphasis on instruction in moral behavior with a focus
on personal integrity, kindness, honesty, self-control, respect for
others, forgiveness, tolerance, wise decision-making and good
citizenship. When emphasis on these qualities is included in
children’s education along with the all-important fundamen-
tals of math, science, history, English, etc. I believe not only
do the students benefit, but the entire community does as well.
Private schools of course cost money to run. SCA receives
no government funding and relies solely on tuition and dona-
tions. The school has deliberately kept tuition low to allow
attendance by children from young families with limited
finances. A drop in recent enrollments has put the school in a
tenuous financial position, which threatens its future continua-
tion. I would strongly encourage the Sisters community — its
churches, businesses, community service organizations and pri-
vate citizens — to carefully consider the unique added value
SCA gives to our community, and to offer your financial sup-
port for this outstanding non-profit school.
We should not let this shining light in Sisters go out.
