BIG BLUE AUCTION

Big Blue Auction

(Saturday Night)

APRIL 20, 2013

7:00pm - High School Gym

Admission $15.00 - includes food and beverages

This is our only major school wide fund raiser for the year. We prefer this method instead of constantly having fund raisers as other schools do. We believe that this event provides a benefit to our families and our school by having great auction items, good food and fun for all. The money raised that night benefits your child directly and allows us to have minimum increases in yearly tuition.

Building Champions for Life

John Curtis Christian School was founded by John T. Curtis Sr. in 1962 on the second floor of the Carrolton Avenue Baptist Church. With only sixteen students on opening day, the school continued to grow and by the end of the first year had over forty students. In 1963, Mr. Curtis Sr. moved the school to its current location on Jefferson Hwy in River Ridge. Mr. Curtis Sr. was the preacher at Coliseum Place Baptist Church for thirty years. He retired from preaching in 2002 but continued in his role as Headmaster of John Curtis Christian School. In May of 2005 after a fight with cancer, Mr. Curtis Sr. passed away. He is survived by his wife Merle Curtis, who continues to be an integral part of the school. All five of his children, J.T., Leon, Deborah, Kathy and Alicia, work at John Curtis Christian School continuing the excellence created by John Curtis Sr.

Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA)

In compliance with the Children’s Internet Protection Act (CIPA) a public meeting was held on March 16, 2011 for all parents in the front gym of John Curtis Christian School. Several issues were discussed at that meeting and Mr. Richard Perniciaro, CEO of Paratech/NOIS specifically discussed the schools internet policy and internet protection software for John Curtis Christian Schools. In addition, information is in the library at both campuses providing information on CIPA and the school policy. Parents generally view this policy at Open House. During the first week of school all students in grades 1st-12th receive instruction on John Curtis Christian School internet usage policy. They then sign a paper stating that they have had the training. Every effort is made to provide your child with safe internet use and software is continually monitored and updated to prevent access to inappropriate sites. Please contact Kathy Rickner or Mark Naccari if you have any questions.
