\u201cThis is more than a school,\u201d Fertal said. \u201cIt\u2019s a mission. A place where truth, beauty, and goodness will shape every lesson and every life.\u201d<\/p>\n

The atmosphere was one of excitement and purpose, as students embraced the opportunity to be part of something new and deeply rooted in tradition.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
