Rules can not be broken


We are one of six private schools in San Cristobal. We are highly regarded by many in the town and many of the principles and directors of other schools send their children to our school. One rule our school has stood on since it started is you must start from Kinder and finish your schooling with us throughout. Parents can't pull their child out of school and return at a later date. If the family decides to pull the child out they can not return. It is our policy and always has been to keep kids from leaving and returning on a continued basis.
Two years ago a young girl decided she didn't like the rules and her mother agreed to pull her out of the school. This year she returned and asked to come back. Her grandfather came with her and tried to convince our director to allow her back in the school. Needless to say, she was not allowed back in and this upset the family. Her grandfather decided to start a petition to close the school. He is trying to get other people in town to sign a sheet to have our school close it's doors. Please pray that through this hardship our school will be stronger because of it. Pray more kids will want to come to our school because we hold to strong principles. Pray the negative talk will turn into praise for our school and the teachers who work here.
