Edwards Interfaith Chapel and Community Center provides interim classrooms for Stone Creek Charter School students beginning in August

The Edwards Interfaith Chapel and Community Center announced today it is providing four classrooms for 4 classes of the Stone Creek Charter School for the upcoming school year from Monday through Friday each week.  Final details of which grades and the terms of the agreement are still being finalized.

"Sharing our classrooms to support this valued community school exemplifies our boards desire to expand ways in which this facility will make a difference in our community," says Jerry Landeck, President of the Board of the Eagle Valley Religious Foundation, the governing body for the space.  "We are delighted to have the space for the students and know they will enjoy our beautiful facility and the positive learning environment it provides, says Landeck."

The location for the students includes 4 classrooms on the second floor of the chapel where there are also bathrooms, a youth room and couches for informal gathering.  "We are grateful to find this terrific arrangement where we will temporarily operate some of our classes while we pursue our final location," says Ron Wolfe, President of the Board of Directors at Stone Creek Charter School.  "This is about giving our children an environment with which to learn to their greatest potential," says Wolfe.

The Edwards Interfaith Chapel opened its doors in September last year with a chapel that can accommodate up to 300 people, a professional catering kitchen, 6 classrooms, a board room and amenities that includes a state of the art a/v system throughout the facility.  The Community Center has hosted a number of fundraising events and is also home to the Thursday night FREE Community Supper which is held from 6-7pm every.  The classrooms are used weekly for religious school and other educational programs. 

The facility is available for rent for events, weddings, meetings and other activities.  Please contact Jill Chalfant to arrange a tour at JLIB_HTML_CLOAKING or for information about worship times at the facility, contact the administrator, Margie Ciaccio at JLIB_HTML_CLOAKING or by calling 970-926-3388.
