LifeWise Academy brings Biblical Education to children during the school day.
In 1952, SCOTUS ruled that students can be released from public school during school hours to attend religious classes. These "released time" classes must be off school property, privately funded and parent-permitted. Though legal for decades, most people have never heard about released time. LifeWise Academy want to change that. LifeWise Academy provides the tools for local churches and community members to share the life-changing Word of God with local public school students.
On January 23rd, 2023, the LifeWise Academy Steering Committee presented the LifeWise program to the Tipp City Board of Education.
After the presentations the Board unanimously agreed to work with LifeWise Academy to start the program in Tipp City in the fall 2023. LifeWise will probably begin with piloting the program in first grade. LifeWise is now working to raise the funds it needs by the fall.
Here is the link for more information on how you can get involved to support the program.
Thank you very much!
