Dan Krause — Founder / President

• The most helpful part was understanding where we are, “ how we got here,” and how to crawl out of our hole in a Christian, mission-minded way. —Seminar Participant • Great info — thanks for your patience with all of our questions. Actual samples from your school were very helpful. Real case scenarios helped bring the examples to reality. —Seminar Participant • So much good info, so well delivered. —Seminar Participant • GraceWorks, more than any other resource, has caused us to make significant and positive changes in the way we advanced our school. Part of GraceWorks effectiveness is Dan Krause's deep experience and passion for Christian education. The other part is their doggedness to keep us accountable for the hard things that we agreed to change for the betterment of the school! —Chris Martineau, Head of Valley Christian School • Now parents are so eager to enroll that we have waiting lists for the first time ever in our preschool. We have growth at our school this year when many other schools have declined in enrollment. We often make reference to our training with GraceWorks and use it as a standard even in the area of developing strong relationships! We trust his experience and know his heart for and understanding of Christian education guides the principles he employs. We have never regretted the investment we made in GraceWorks' training. —Jane Helleckson, Principal and Preschool Director, Riverside Christian School, East Grand Forks, MN • All the sessions were incredibly beneficial. Thank you!! It was so packed with vital information! —Seminar Participant • On behalf of the board at Covenant Christian School, thank you for doing a terrific job. Your information and ideas will be of great benefit to our school. What struck me most is that we should be partnering with parents so their child may be like Daniel, Moses or Esther. What a great responsibility! Thank you again. May God your ministry greatly. In Him, —Chuck Lynn, Board President • The most important part of the LOSA Seminar was getting us off dead center. Dan was warm and real – very patient! —Seminar Participant • This was all so new, yet linked to some of my experience, so I really like it. —Seminar Participant • Understanding the financial numbers in laymen’s terms, was instrumental to me in understanding how the school operates. —Board Member • The entire sessions were incredibly beneficial.

He was truthful in telling us we are only better than 25% of other schools. 2) I appreciated the spiritual emphasis and his focus on letting the Holy Spirit lead us even if it’s not the “conventional” wisdom. —Seminar Participant • This Seminar is what it was supposed to be — Excellent! —Bob Hendricks • Well, I'm recovering from the weekend.
