Growth comes to a Christian school in South Africa.

South Africa (MNN)–In South Africa, the Association of Christian Schools hopes to begin construction on a school in Jeffreysbay.

The school began in 1998 with 11 students and two teachers. It has now grown to almost 100 students and more than 15 staff members as well as a committed parent body.

Currently, the school teaches children from Grade 0 through to Grade 8 and progresses each year as the students progress so that by 2007 it will be a complete High School.

Students who graduate with ACE training are recognized and accepted by colleges and universities and have a background of Christian principles and understanding.

ACSI asks prayer for the core group of individuals who will help the school with this project. Staff members work to educate children and young people with the mind of Christ.

Their goal is to develop role models reaching their peers with the reality of Christ Jesus.
