 A total of 501 children from poor communities recently completed the kindergarten level at several  pre-schools overseen by the Visions of Hope Christian School and are eligible for enrolment in first grade.   


"These children have a definite edge over other children entering public schools because they are already readers," said Cristina Gellor, VOHCS principal. "More importantly, the seed of God’s Word has been planted in their young hearts; VOHCS staff pray it will bring powerful and blessed results as these children grow and become salt and light in their schools and communities."
