The first relationship was created under a management agreement that had a five-year window ending in May of 2018. Great things were accomplished in this five-year period for both schools. Finances were strengthened, academic achievement flourished. Perhaps of greatest importance, two different types of churches found that they not only could work together, but they also found they could accomplish more when they came together under a common goal for God’s purposes.
During the school year of 2016-17, the conversation about the original partnership between High Point Christian School and Abundant Life Christian School began to change. The prevailing thought was, that was good, is there more? The conclusion was a resounding yes! A new school was drawn into the conversation, Lighthouse Christian School. In the fall of 2017, all the parties concluded that there needed to be a formal move to the creation of Impact Christian Schools (ICS). The three schools mentioned form the original charter and will be working with ICS starting in the 2018-19 school year.
