Message from our Proeistamenos
Dear Friends
Christ is in our midst!
Welcome! First, I would like
to share a story with you about a jewel and a jewel box.
A village was once given a
very precious jewel. To protect the magnificent jewel, the
villagers made a beautiful jewel box to place it in. The
jewel and jewel box were then passed down from one
generation to the next, with each generation making an even
more precious box to put the previous one in.
You can imagine how precious
all those jewel boxes were that housed the original jewel.
It is this jewel with its jewel box that we wish to share
with you. The jewel is our precious Adamantios Koraes
Elementary School.
Koraes School is unique in
comparison to other elementary schools in that its guiding
light is the Holy Cross of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus
Christ. Every day for ten years Koraes students experience
the Orthodox way of life—whether by instruction, in Divine
Services, or “as applied.” Furthermore, unlike some other
schools, Koraes goes a step further in caring about who its
students are as human beings, as individuals created in the
image and likeness of their Creator. In a word, Koraes
turns out good Orthodox Christians, good students, and good
citizens.
With this in mind we welcome
you to our school and specifically here to our website.
With God’s blessings!
