Last night we had a long awaited parents meeting where I could roll out the full extent of our changes for Light Force this fall. There are a lot of them… and some of them are hard to swallow.
Here’s the highlights of what is changing. Go to the read more for that…
In the students eyes, tonight was a worship and game night. I’m certain there are some students who are miffed about how it went down since they originally wanted it to be a student led thing and it ended up being a Dave & Jason led thing. At the end of the day… I should have stepped in and led this thing from the beginning or not let it happen at all. Life is about learning from mistakes. Oh well, win some and lose some.
