Solar System

avharrison — Tue, 04 Jun 2013 19:47:05 +0000

On Friday, May 31st, the seventh grade science students, with the help of science teacher Mrs.Kuplen, presented the solar system to the parents. Students worked in pairs to create a layer of the sun and planet. On the day of the presentation, the students presented their models along with a short definition about their planet and sun part. They also put together a little ditty to the tune of “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.” As each student presented, they added a piece to the solar system, eventually creating our entire solar system.

Reflections from the Dominican Republic

avharrison — Wed, 29 May 2013 20:42:19 +0000

The 8th grade class trip to the Dominican Republic was an absolutely amazing experience. The entire trip was an example of God’s grace and how it transcends cultures, languages and life’s circumstances. Our students, parents and teachers worked with Mission Emanuel to help provide a solid floor and refurbished walls to Andrea, a member of the Cielo community. They also spent a significant amount of time building relationships with the children in the community-showing God’s love through play and laughter. At the end of the week, we got a chance to visit a Leprosarium where our hearts were touched so deeply by the residents of that community. Our students were able to stretch out of a comfort zone and truly show the love of Christ to these people. It truly was a blessed week.

Second Grade Enrichment Visits Shamu

avharrison — Wed, 22 May 2013 19:09:13 +0000

The 2nd grade Odyssey of the Mind team visited Sea World as a continuation of their “Top Seacret Discoveries” lesson. The morning started off with the educational experience of an Ocean Discovery class that included learning about whales and dolphins and gaining an appreciation for all living creatures and habitats. The students enjoyed learning about the One Ocean Show with Shamu and the day ended with a journey to The Lost City of Atlantis.

It’s Showtime!

avharrison — Wed, 15 May 2013 19:53:00 +0000

Our Middle School students from the elective “It’s Showtime” have worked hard all semester to put together Seussical the Musical. We are excited to be able to present the show at three different times. There will be two daytime opportunities for students to see the production. We encourage lower school parents to join their student’s class for the production. There will be one evening performance. As space is limited, we ask that students and adults who have attended Wednesday and Thursday matinees allow others to attend the evening performance. For the evening performance, we will have a limited number of general seating tickets available for pick-up at The Christ School office on Monday, May 20^th. There will be a reserved area for parents of the students participating. Additional tickets will be available on a first come, first serve basis.

Performances in the Warehouse

Wednesday, May 22^nd – 2:00 p.m. (2^nd – 4^th grades)

Thursday, May 23^rd – 9:00 a.m. (5^th- 8^th grades)
