Renewing and Reminding Ourselves of our Priorities

Happy new year!!  Welcome to 2017, and to a return to school!  

As we return to our classes, greet the kids as they come off of their buses, and get back to the business of learning, the start of a new session is a good time to remind ourselves of our priorities.  What did we set out to do?  Are we doing it?  Where are we succeeding, where do we need to re-focus?

As staff, we continue to work on building our practice and craft of teaching - to inspire kids to learn, to do beautiful work, and to show them God's creative and redemptive hand in everything.  As students, we continue to engage in our learning, to work with our classmates and teachers, and to seek God in word and in deed.  As parents, we continue to instruct and empower our kids to understand this world in the light of Christ's sacrifice and our duty to not only study, but to proclaim that good news to all.

As a school community, we continue to live for Jesus, learn for life, and serve with gladness.

1 Thess. 5:11  "So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing."

2 Timothy 1:7  "For God has not given us a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline. So never be ashamed to tell others about our Lord."
