Next week is Teacher Appreciation Week. Our teachers play a vital role in shaping not only the minds but also the hearts of their students. They dedicate themselves daily to providing a high-quality education rooted in biblical truth, weaving faith into every subject they teach. Their influence extends beyond the classroom as they model Christ-like character, encourage spiritual growth, and pray for their students. With patience, compassion, and wisdom, they help guide young lives toward academic excellence and a deeper relationship with God.
As a school, we are incredibly thankful for our Christian teachers and staff and all they do. Their commitment, sacrifice, and servant-hearted leadership do not go unnoticed. Whether staying late to prepare lessons, offering a listening ear to a struggling student, or leading a classroom in prayer, they consistently go above and beyond. We are truly blessed to have such dedicated individuals who are educators and spiritual mentors, and we thank God for the blessing they are to our entire school community.
What do the students say? Every student asked told us about how kind and caring their teachers are. My teacher is good at math, which helps us be good at math. I told a teacher that my parents were getting a divorce. The teacher prayed with me and hugged me. That was very meaningful. We play learning games that help us understand the lesson. We do fascinating science experiments. When I returned from a trip, my teacher asked how it had gone. It is very nice when teachers are interested in what you are doing and what is important to you. My teacher cares about me and encourages me all the time. She gives us candy when we finish our morning work. He explains math well and even acts it out. We have many opportunities to learn in small groups. She teaches us new things every day. My favorite thing about my teacher is that he tells “dad” jokes. They are so funny! My teacher knows weird things about history. It makes it interesting. We play games for every subject. It helps us learn. I felt special when my teacher talked about me in chapel when I was Student of the Week. My teacher is kind, making us want to be nice to others. We can give a thumbs-up or thumbs-down when we don't understand something. That way, the teacher knows whether we need help or another explanation. Be sure to let the teachers know how much you appreciate them. A card, an email, a flower, or a word of encouragement will go a long way! We have great things planned for next week.
