CFS at 50!




the work of a Friends school

the first charge of a Friends school
should be to see and appreciate each child as unique,
and each as a treasured expression of how
that of God meets that of the world,

the second charge of a Friends school
should be to help community be born,
to help each find and appreciate the other,
so that each finds a way to connect and become larger,

who we are together tunes us
to find and like who we are,
both in solo and in chorus,

and thus a power is released
with which the world can renew.
