Middletown schools have so many children that qualify for food assistance that all students receive free breakfast and lunch on school days. The children in our city need their neighbors to reach out. Central Academy is our church yard neighbor and they need our help. Did you know that Central Academy serves children from all over the Middletown area? They have students from more affluent neighborhoods and students from poverty stricken areas.
Jesus calls us to love our neighbors as we would love ourselves. Jesus calls us to reach out and care for the Central Academy children we have as neighbors. There are many ways you can reach out and help our neighbor – Central Academy. Volunteers are in high demand. Below is a list of ways you can plug in and help the students of Central Academy:
Reading to and with students
Practicing sight words through games
Practicing math facts
Helping students write
Making copies in the school office
Cutting and assembling kits for student use can be done at home and returned to school

If you would like to know more about being a Christ-like neighbor to Central Academy, please contact Pastor Roe. She will get you connected to the school. Pastor Roe, our Elders and Outreach Ministry Team are planning to help with a couple special events. We’ll have more information on these as it becomes available.
