Brief History

of the English Language School

 

Our English Language School was begun for Internationals in 2002 to share the love of Jesus by reaching out into the community to help others. The school has grown steadily since its beginning.

 

All of the services of the school are free of charge to its students except for a yearly registration fee of five dollars per ESL student.

 

The program is a ministry lovingly supported financially and prayerfully by the congregation. Most of the school's staff are members of Monument Heights Baptist Church; however, we are also blessed to have staff members from other area churches and/or neighborhoods.
