Grandfriends’ day is just around the corner! We have been busy getting ready and our students are excited to show off their classrooms and campus. On Friday, October 14 at 1pm, this event will kick off in our high school gym starting with an all school chapel. We can’t wait to see you all. #grandfriendsday #christianschool #MVCS
A few weeks ago, to kick off a unit on kindness, the book “Boxes For Katje” was read to the second grade classes. It is based on a true story that took place after World War Two. This prompted Mrs. Van Zanten and Mrs. VanderPol to get in touch with a Ukrainian family who is moving to the Washington area soon and was in need of kitchen supplies. Here are the fruits of our second grade labors. In addition, students were encouraged to lift this family up in prayer. If you would like to pray for the family, they have boys ages 13, 11, 9, and 3, and a 7 year old girl. #service #christianschool #learnleadserve #powerofprayer
7th grade ELA (english language arts) put their chromebooks to good use today accessing google classroom to complete assignments online. MVCS has worked hard to be able to support our students by providing a one to one chromebook per student. Don't worry, we also still use good old textbooks! #christianschool #technology
Today we are wrapping up k-6th grade conferences. A big thank you to our teachers and families for partnering together to provide an educational setting that benefits and encourages our students.
Mrs. VanValkenburg had the privilege of taking 21 FFA students to a leadership workshop in Monroe. There were approximately 250 students there from 15 schools in Whatcom, Skagit and Snohomish counties.
Four students (Devin and Anika Hibma, Trevor Blom and Sydney Fitzgerald) headed with Mrs. VanValkenburg to the gun range in Burlington for an FFA Trapshooting contest. They did so well and are hooked! Our next competition will be next Tuesday!
