We open this school year under the verse, “But these were written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ…” from John 20:31. Our theme, “WE BELIEVE,” is more than just a profession of faith. It also serves as our motivation to LOOK, LISTEN, and LIVE for Christ. 

I believe that ESM has the opportunity to make a difference for eternity. Our teachers are ready, excited, and planning ways to provide instruction in relevant and engaging ways. In addition to rigorous academic programs, we hope to grow faith. 

I believe that our partnership with parents is the key to our success. Thank you for supporting your child’s education by committing to be an active member of the team. 

I believe that there has never been a more important time for Christian education. We need to raise up the next generation, ready to face new challenges, firmly rooted and established in Christ. 

I believe that God is blessing ESM with growth in enrollment, facility, and quality staff. Our school enrollment has reached 282, up 23 students from last year. Both congregations will be embarking on building projects. And, we’ve added new staff, which we will introduce to you over the next few issues of our newsletter.
