The world has changed so much over the years, but the one thing that has never changed is the desire for, and concern over, children’s education. Whether it’s in the private, public, or homeschool, every parent has made a decision, and every parent is trying to do the best they can for their children.
Maybe circumstances or concerns have heightened for you in your child’s academic journey recently, and you’re starting to ask yourself if something else would be better for them. Maybe you feel stuck between fighting the morals being taught at your school, the lack of education, or lack of opportunity, or maybe all of that is fine, but you just want something MORE.
In this day and age, it can be hard to get kids away from screens. Whether it’s television, the iPad, or video games, the screen has become a large part of children’s lives.
To be honest, it can be hard at times to really think about activities to have your child engage in besides screen time. It can also just be easy to let them do their own thing and, as parents, do your own thing; screens being the simple solution to that.
If you’re looking for new activities that get your child out and about, one fun way to spend time during the spring and summer with your children is gardening together. It’s time that gets both child and parent away from screens, and it is time together instead of apart.
Springtime is on the horizon! The birds will be chirping, the weather will be warmer and we know that you’re excited to have outside outings with your family.
It’s been a wild past couple of years with Covid, and it’s time to make the most of this time on this beautiful earth that we have. This is the time to get out and enjoy God’s creation, especially since Covid and social distancing are less of a concern in the outdoors.
We know you take your children’s education seriously, and so do we. We understand that it can be hard when trying to make the best decision for your child. If you are contemplating switching schools, especially from public to private, we know it’s a process to consider carefully.
We also know that one of the biggest concerns many people have when considering private school is finances. We’re here to help you understand the benefits of a private school for your high schooler, and why it’s worth every penny.
Being a part of the “Bible Belt” and being in a state where you are sure to find a church within every ten miles, one may assume a Christian perspective on the world is woven into the very confines of our being. However, we are easily persuaded by the culture we live in.
When you are surrounded by ideologies that are specifically attached to your community, location, and country, they sometimes go unnoticed as to how they’ve become an automatic way of thinking. So how can we be sure that we’re teaching our children and students a worldview that is pure and not filtered through the lens of our society?
