Justin is the principal of St. Peter Lutheran School in Freedom, Wisconsin. St. Peter is part of a dynamic ministry that includes St. Peter Church, the CORE in downtown Appleton, an online ministry, and affiliations with Lighthouse Youth Ministry and Time of Grace. Together these groups are known as 922 Ministries. \n\nIn the last few years, the school has completed a 45,000 square foot addition and is in the process of adding their second classroom at each grade level, as well as continuing to welcome new leadership, faculty, and staff each year. With so much change, it was time to stop and evaluate, build stability, and clarify identity and vision. That’s why St. Peter decided to complete Blueprint’s Progress Report and then ultimately commit to a Blueprint Schools Partnership. \nIt takes courage to submit to a whole organizational review like the Progress Report, but the clarity is worth it - for your leadership and your board, for your faculty and staff, and ultimately, for the students and families you serve. \nListen in as Justin shares more about the Progress Report and Partnership process, and how it's helping this ministry not only grow, but thrive while doing so.
