August 6, 2020 by Staff

(Baptist Press) Headmaster Walt Shaffner praises God and quotes Jon Bon Jovi in discussing plans for Bell Shoals Baptist Academy to reopen during the COVID-19 pandemic: “Map out your future, but do it in pencil.”

The preschool through eighth grade academy of Bell Shoals Baptist Church in Brandon, Fla., is among thousands of Christian schools resuming classes while adhering to government guidelines and safety recommendations that vary among the states, and implementing other voluntary measures.
