Bible Based Character Education
During School Hours
Yes, it's possible. Why not in your community?
Most people have never heard that students can be released from public school during school hours to attend religious classes. It's called "released time religious instruction" and the many benefits include:
1. Parents and
community members
pass along time-tested biblical principles.
2. Schools
see improved classroom behavior, mental health and academic performance.
3. Students
gain an understanding of the Bible which has shaped the hearts and minds of many people through the centuries.
