The End of the School Year

Friday was the last day of school for the students. Commencement was held Friday evening. The 2009-2010 school year is officially over. The elementary students were very busy this week finishing up their projects and going on field trips. They also participated in field day on Thursday morning, and their honors assembly was held Friday morning.

The secondary students enjoyed taking some new classes this week for J-Term. I enjoyed walking around to see the projects the students were working on and to hear about the new things they were learning. The boys in the martial arts class seemed to be having the most fun when they were trying to break boards on Friday.

As I was sitting at commencement Friday evening, I was reminded of the miracle of that event. There was a point last summer when we didn't know if Macomb Christian would graduate another class. I am so grateful to God for the blessings He has provided so that the ministry of Macomb Christian will continue.

Getting Ready for the Last Week of School

It is hard to believe that at the end of this week the 2009-2010 school year will be over. It seems like the school year just started. I know that the high school students were very relieved on Friday when they finished taking their last exam. They seemed relieved as they left school that afternoon.

On Friday, all of the elementary students that reached their AR (Accelerated Reader) goal all four quarters were treated to a special lunch. I am so proud of all of these students who worked so hard to achieve this. I was glad to see that so many of the students had been busy reading throughout the school year. I have challenged all students entering 1st - 6th grades to keep reading throughout the summer. Information on the challenge will be coming home soon.

This coming week is going to be a busy week. There will be Kindergarten graduation, elementary and secondary honors assemblies, field day, year-end trips, J-term, and commencement. I am sure there are other events that I have forgotten to mention. Please join me in praying that we will all finish strong!
