Christian Day Care Center Pre-School Teacher Opening

Christian Day Care Center, a Ministry of West Side Christian Church, is pleased to announce that their programs are expanding.  This growth will provide the opportunity to offer our Bible based academic programs to ten additional children.  Therefore we will need to hire a teacher.  If you are someone who loves Jesus and children, have appropriate post-secondary education in child development, and have experience in a pre-school, kindergarten, or a licensed day care center, we would love to discuss employment with you.  Please call 787-7673 and ask for Kim Moore or Linda Goza.

Learn the benefits of Christian education

Some advertising techniques used by charter schools are touting that charter schools are the same as private schools without paying the tuition.  They even invite listeners/readers to log onto freeschools.org to learn more.

While we all know that these charter schools are not faith-based, we must also realize that these schools are not free.  We fund these schools through the taxes that we pay.  For more information, log onto:  http://www.acsi.org/tabid/892/itemid/5294/default.aspx.
