And another year is underway. The crazy thing is, we're already coming up on the midpoint of the first grading period. Time flies!

The pace at the beginning of the year always seems to catch many of the kids off guard. However, their efforts and attitudes normally help them transition quite well into their school work, and this year was no exception. I love the kids here!

Most of the classes begin with a lot of review, but by now are getting into new material. We've been looking at a lot of review in different operations, decimals & fractions, and how these are applied in word problems for the middle school. The high school has been focusing on everything from the distributive property & solving for unknowns to matrices for two & three dimensional equations to continuity of functions & their limits. The kids are also diving headlong into their foreign language class (whichever one their taking) on Rosetta Stone, sharpening their keyboarding skills, and learning how to write creatively enough so people will want to read the newsletters they create.

Is this a lot for the students to tackle? Of course, but if we can train them to be men and women of godly character, I believe they will step up to the plate and complete each task. And not only will these tasks be completed, men and women of godly character will do it as to the Lord (Colossians 3:23). This will only improve the quality of the work done here at Kingdom Academy.

Please join me in praying for, and helping point these kids back to Christ as their example of how to perform their tasks. Thank you, and we hope to have another wonderful year!
