Spirit of Heaviness
“To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified.” Isaiah 61:13.
School Board prioritizes projects
Director of Schools Chad Moorehead addressed the School Board regarding several projects that need to be addressed in Moore County Schools at August’s board meeting. The first concerned the bathrooms at the “99 wing” at the elementary school. When the six classrooms were first built, each classroom had small storage closets at the back of the room. Sometime later, the small closets were converted to restrooms.
