This process of construction required a community of con- secrated Christian parents willing to meet the challenge of 3141000 and a building and plan- ning committee of enthusiastic leaders. In 1946 enough classrooms were finished to accom- odate students from the seventh through the tenth grades. On March 28, 1947 the building was formally dedicated. Since that time hundreds of students have passed through its halls. The twenty years of its history have been marked with achievements and success. More than just a building it has become a symbol of progress and Christian vision and a subject to a law of life--the old must be replaced by the new.
