Welcome to Ripon Christian School Circle! We are an auxiliary to the Society for Christian Instruction. The chief purpose of this organization is to work for the advancement of the local Christian school and the strengthening of the bond of Christian fellowship among our families.
Meetings are open to anyone who is interested in Christian education. The organization is under the supervision of the local Christian School Board. None of our work shall conflict with other school projects.
This organization meets the first Friday of everyone month from 8:30am-10:00am (coffee provided) at the Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon. We open our meetings with prayer and singing, listen to a program put on by one of the elementary grades and have devotions. We close with a business meeting. Nursery is provided for your infants and toddlers. The first day of school we will be serving cookies and coffee and hope that you can stop by to meet some of the School Circle members.
Proceeds of the Circle fundraisers are used for the needs of Ripon Christian School upon previous consultation with the Administration. The Christian School Circle is always looking for more volunteers. This is a great opportunity to meet other parents and build relationships. Many people are needed for the fundraisers and events that we hold during the year to be a success. These fundraisers save each of us directly in helping to keep tuition costs down.
The officers for the 2008-2009 school year are:
Joanne De Raadt, President
|
Beth Anne Brouwer, Treasurer |
| Shelley Nelson, Vice President |
Lisa Weaver, Asst. Treasurer |
| Janis Sipma, Secretary |

The School Circle has long supported the financial needs of Ripon Christian with its fundraisers. The funds raised help keep tuition costs from rising beyond our reach. However, without parental support the School Circle and its vital fundraisers will cease to exist. Please prayerfully consider assisting Ripon Christian and its students through your participation and volunteering in either a position on the School Circle "Board" or in the events during the year. Each year we need new officers to step up.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at: scircle@rcschools.com
Thank you,
Joanne DeRaadt, President
