Letter from the Principal Dear Junior Knights, Wow! We have had a remarkable year learning new things about old things! With a new history program, we embarked on a journey into the past to discover new lands and people. Through our geography studies, we discovered grand rivers and Great Lakes, and visited Canada, Rome, Greece and Egypt. We learned how God moved adventurous men and women to unfamiliar parts of the globe to establish new colonies, villages, towns and cities. We read about past civilizations, and nobleman of the Middle Ages. The great artistic and scientific accomplishments of the Renaissance captured our interest and inspired our own creativity. We saw how the Reformation and the printing press helped to spread the Good News of salvation! Together we thought about our theme verse, Hebrews 10:23; Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Famous heroes of the faith showed us how to hold on tightly to the hope we profess. Eric Liddell surrendered all to God when he refused to run on Sunday. Amy Carmichael trusted that God had a plan for her life, even though her eye color remained brown when she prayed for blue. Hudson Taylor showed us that through prayer God would provide. God used George Whitfield to proclaim the Good News of Jesus to awaken the heart of America. As we gathered for community chapels, we were challenged to place heroic faith in our great God, too! The outdoor classroom gave us a new place to learn about God and His world. God has blessed us with a beautiful school in which to learn about Him, and to use for His glory. Many of you explored Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) in classes and after-school clubs. You designed castles, built robots, crafted gingerbread houses, sculpted birds, and read over the top! Whether in class or out, junior knights stick together! Fifth graders, as you prepare to move up to Middle School, my prayer is that you will pursue learning, that you will persevere through challenges, and that you will prayerfully trust God to provide all you need as He does amazing things in your lives! Have an Absolutely Beach-loving, Crab-catching, Dolphin-discovering, Egret-exploring, Fish-frying, Galaxygazing summer in the Lord!
With joy,
