Dayspring Christian Academy invites families with soonto-be preschoolers, prekindergartners, and kindergartners to attend an open house on Thursday, Feb. 10, at 10 a.m. at the school, 120 College Ave., Mountville. The open house will feature a Valentine’s Day party that will focus on 1 Corinthians 13:13, “The greatest of these is love.” Parents will meet with teachers and learn about the Principle Approach, a method of thinking and living by God’s Truth and the method of education used at Dayspring.
