Growing in Community - November 28, 2011

Last week was an excellent opportunity as a school to grow in community.  The membership meeting, held last Monday, included a number of reports from various committees and it was great to hear what is going on at various levels to support the education here at Calvin Christian School in Dundas.  One of the heart-warming moments was when each member of the Board of Directors took the time to introduce him/herself.  As they did this they also took the opportunity to share what it is that they love about DCCS.  What an excellent example it was for the entire school community!  They took the opportunity to be ambassadors for His school, in His Kingdom. I encourage you to come out to the next meeting and hear of all the wonderful things happening in this school for His names sake.  We also had the privilege of discussing Christian education and the progress of our learners during the annual Learning Dialogues.  I was happy to see how well this was attended by parents in the community.  It demonstrates how involved and connected the parents are in the education of their child(ren).  The partnership of home and school was manifested in each of the conversations that occurred and in the conversations that followed.  Thank you again for your intentional efforts at building community here at the school and around the kitchen tables.  Let us keep working together to educate the next generation in the fear of the Lord. ~ Mr. Bouwers
