Snow Day Awe February 3, 2015

The first big snowfall of winter came through the night Sunday and into Monday.  Families were informed of the snow day and I am sure some parents quietly shut off alarms for their children.  When they did awake they marvelled at the mammoth snow drifts, the bright blanket of white, and the brilliant sunbeams dancing off of the snow. When they did head outside they burrowed into the snow as ground hogs making homes.  Fitting for the day it was.  Our kids were drenched, not only from thawing snowflakes, but in awe and wonder.  Even more so than that, they exhibited a sense of play.  It is this sense of play and awe and wonder that we want to bring to our classrooms as well.  It is our desire to have the students grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. We want our students to grow in love through awe and wonder of Him, His creation, and His created order.  Playfully uncovering God’s gifts that He places and hides in the world is a wonderful charge for the Christian school teacher.  We ask you to continue to partner with us as we diligently work to do this at Providence Christian School.  Continue to pray for and offer encouragement to our teachers and we will continue to pray for the parents and students of our community as well.   ~ Mr. Bouwers
