Welcome to Immanuel Elementary
Welcome to the 2025–26 school year at Immanuel Elementary School!
I am humbled and blessed to begin another year with this incredible community as I continue to serve as the IES Principal. Whether you are new to our school or returning for another exciting year, thank you for the privilege of partnering together in the joyful task of equipping every child to serve God and serve others with mind, body, and soul—firmly rooted in a Christ-centered foundation.
Our theme for this year is Anchored in His Word. Psalm 119:11 says, “I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.” This verse reminds us of the importance of grounding our lives in the truth of Scripture. In a world filled with shifting values and constant change, God’s Word is our unshakable anchor—providing hope, guidance, and stability. Our desire is that every student at Immanuel would not only learn the truth of God's Word but would treasure it, hide it in their hearts, and allow it to shape their thoughts, actions, and identity.
To our families: At Immanuel, your child will continue to engage in a dynamic academic experience while forming meaningful relationships with their teachers and classmates. Whether they are exploring literature and math, science and social studies, worshiping in chapel, serving through outreach, or discovering passions through arts, athletics, and extracurriculars—your child will be immersed in a learning environment anchored in the love and truth of Jesus Christ.
To our students: You are not here by accident. God has placed you at Immanuel for a reason and a purpose. When life feels uncertain or challenging, may you always remember that God’s truth never changes—and you can always rely on it. My prayer is that this year, you will grow closer to Him and discover the power and peace that come from being Anchored in His Word.
In Christ,
Jonathan Fast
