August was once called “Sextillion” by the Romans, as it was the 6th month of the Roman year. The Emperor Augustus changed it to be named after himself - his name derived from a Latin expression meaning “to increase.” We celebrate August on this campus as a month of increase, true to its Latin meaning. As classroom doors swing open inviting students to come with eager and open minds it signals an increase. But on this campus, there is more: the increase is the mission of educating and training missionaries for the cause of Jesus. The increase for the Kingdom. We invite you to join in dedicating our campus with the themes of knowing and showing God’s Character (Campion Academy) and being Called By God (HMS Elementary). So let it be, that this school year, God gives the increase (1 Corinthians 3:5-8).
