Parent Resources
At Anthem Students our vision is to help students Follow Jesus + Share His Story. We count it an honor and a great opportunity to be an influence in your student’s life during this season. However, we know that we aren't the ONLY influence. In fact, students are only with us for up to 1.19% of their week. That means that 98.81% of that time they are with someone else! Fortunately, a lot of that time is spent with you, their parents, which means you have a greater influence on your kids than we do, and we want to help!
We believe that two combined influences can have a much greater impact than just separate influences. In other words, we are better together. When we are on the same page, pulling in the same direction and saying the same things, imagine what we can do together for your kids!
