LifeWise Academy
Lifewise Academy Northern Wells* opened its doors for students in January, 2023. First Presbyterian Church Ossian joined with other churches in the Ossian area to help make this event reality.
The program takes place in one area of OPC's building. Several members of First Presbyterian volunteer in the program, helping to prepare the building, serving on the board and as support staff.
*What is Lifewise Academy?
Lifewise Academy's mission is "to positively impact students, schools and communities by providing a Bible-based character-focused Released Time Religious Instruction (RTRI) program." RTRI is a legal program by which religious instruction is accessible to public school students during the school day, allowing them to leave school (with parental permission) to attend off-site classes, provided by the community, which are both academic and religious in nature.
