Head of School's Welcome

Dear Families,

 

I am pleased to welcome you, on behalf of the First United Methodist Church of Coral Gables, to The Growing Place School (TGPS).

 

Our school values community, collaboration, inclusion, and altruism. Our dedicated, enthusiastic, and nurturing educators work together to help each child grow and develop into their full potential as a child of God. You, the parents, make TGPS an authentic, community school because of your continuous support and involvement.

 

Communication and collaboration are important between the school and families. We encourage families to get to know each other and become involved in the many opportunities for connection that our school and church children’s programs provide throughout the year.

 

“And the child grew and became strong, filled with wisdom, and the favor of God was upon him.” Luke 2:40 RSV

 

Blessings,

​

Corina Dekker

Head of School
