Editor,
The Mission Valley Christian Academy held two events last week and wish to thank the following individuals for helping us improve the safety of our school.
Polson Police Chief Wade Nash and Salish/Kootenai Tribal Officer Craige Couture shared a workshop with our staff on dealing with a dangerous person entering our school. Although most people would rather not think about this kind of a situation, this workshop gave us several ideas on how to improve the security for our students and staff. Wade and Craige agreed to come and visit MVCA on a regular basis and connect with our students as well. We are very blessed to have such quality law officers that are willing to invest their time and energy into our schools.
The Polson Fire Department presented a demonstration to our younger school students on Thursday in honor of fire prevention week. Julie Sisler and Taylor were very engaging and did a great job informing the students of the importance of fire safety. We are so appreciative of their efforts to bring the fire truck and equipment to inspire and teach our students about their capabilities.
All of these individuals serve and protect our communities and deserve our deep gratitude and appreciation. MVCA is committed to developing lifelong servant leaders and these people are great role models for our students.
Thanks again for helping our school develop higher standards for security and fire prevention. We are a better community because of quality people like you.
Chris Bumgarner
MVCA Director
