A blog that is not maintained is not read. And it has been a long time since we posted, so here goes!
This has been a very busy couple of months. This week was Missions Conference. Dr. Hantz Bernard of Bibles International was outstanding! One had to listen carefully ( to understand his French accent) and think deeply (to follow his message)--but both were well worth it! He was so encouraging, and challenging. But we are tired.
This week-end we are working on grades--report cards are due on Monday. After three quarters, I can sincerely say that there MUST be a better record-keeping program than Headmaster. It is not a help, but a burden.
Today, the Women's Basketball team from George Fox University won the Division III national championship. They have been undefeated all season (32 games). They have one Senior, 2 or 3 Juniors and the rest of the team are Freshmen. It was supposed to be a rebuilding year. Wow!
Nate & Lissa have been avid fans, as both work for George Fox and the campus is only a couple of blocks from their house.
Two students from our school entered a speech contest run by Right to Life--and they both placed in the top 3, and won money. Good Job!!
Yesterday was Junior High Fine Arts competition--I do not know how well they did, but from what I saw, there should be some who placed.
Jenny & Michael are building raised beds for their garden today. The weather is cooperating, though there was snow this morning. Good for peas.
