Get involved in prayer through
Moms In Touch!


Join Moms in Touch (for both campuses) on Wednesday mornings.
Meetings will be held at the Secondary Campus each Wednesday.
All ladies are cordially invited to come and pray for their ASCS students, teachers, and our school. For more information, please contact Terri Christensen at 361-5960.

Please read through the following points of interest that define
what it really means to be a part of this powerful group of prayer warriors:

  • Moms In Touch will spend the entire hour in prayer with a minimum of discussion.
  • We follow a Praise, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Intercession format.
  • We endeavor to start on time and end on time, although the ladies frequently stay afterward to fellowship.
  • Our prayer is focused on Atlantic Shores School.
  • There is a lot in the world today that needs prayer, but for that one hour a week, we focus only on ASCS, its students, teachers, and concerns.
  • We pray a specific scripture each week for our child who is a student at Shores.
  • We don't just pray about tests and illness, we ask God to grow our child's faith and develop godly character.
  • We use the list of faculty to pray for ASCS teachers.
  • We assign teachers to pray for each week and pray the Scripture over them as well.
  • We go through the list several times each year and also attempt to pray for teachers and situations in the school under our 'school concerns' section of our prayer time.
  • We welcome all prayer requests and praises for answered prayer from the school staff.
  • What is prayed in the group, stays in the group. No gossip allowed.
  • Under Moms in Touch International guidelines, we are not able to provide childcare. We ask that moms allow someone else the privilege of caring for their younger children during that hour so they may concentrate on prayer.

 

 

Stanford Achievement Test

We are thrilled to share the Stanford Achievement Test scores of our 3rd – 8th graders with you!  All of these classes scored FAR above the national averages in all subject areas (see chart below).  We are so excited about these results because they indicate that the hard work of our teachers and  students is really paying off.  Our test results in math were particularly phenomenal, scoring above the 78th percentile (remember 50 represents the national average).  For example, a score of 85 says that our students scored better than 85% of all other students in the nation at their grade level including both public and private schools. 

These test results are really important because they tell us that your student will get a superior education that will help to prepare them for middle school, high school, college and beyond.
