During this season of giving, we are reminded of the importance of showing love and God’s grace to those in our Jackson community who are less fortunate. Not confined to the holidays, our students, faculty, and staff work throughout the year to seek out and respond to opportunities to fill needs. Earlier this year, TRS hosted a highly successful canned food drive, collecting and raising funds for nearly 2,000 canned goods items.

At TRS, we believe that team sports and activities are vital in connecting young people with something bigger than themselves. We are proud of our Lions Cross Country Team, who completed their third season of competition this fall. We know that offering these types of opportunities will benefit our students by deepening existing friendships, developing beneficial character traits, and experiencing the thrill of personal and collective achievement.

It’s hard to believe that we will soon be wrapping up the first semester of the 2023-2024 academic year. These natural rhythms of the school calendar allow our leadership opportunities to track the academic progress of our students. As we review the information we provided in our 2023 Fall Impact Report, we are still marveling at the amazing academic progress of our Lions!

At The Redeemer's School, we are committed to the holistic development of our students. Our approach to education is not exclusively about filling young minds with knowledge; it is also about nurturing the souls of our young image-bearers. Taken from God’s Word in Mark 12, we have developed our own framework to guide us in defining and refining our measure of success. The second pillar central to this framework is Soul | Spiritual Formation.

Fostering strong family bonds is a key aspect to developing emotionally healthy children who grow and thrive. Recently, we hosted an event that epitomizes the way we programmatically prioritize ways to celebrate and strengthen our TRS families. Donuts With Dudes was a huge hit as our young boys and young men welcomed the significant male figures in their lives to campus to share a delicious donut breakfast and spend time fellowshipping together.

At TRS, we believe that education goes beyond the confines of a classroom. It's equally about nurturing young hearts and instilling Christian values for students’ future development as Kingdom makers in their communities.
