If I may borrow from reputed author Steven Covey, "The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing." This thought is especially relevant at this time of the year. Let's look at this within a couple of important aspects of school life.
The first is for students (and faculty!). In looking back over the school year we all realize that it has been a very busy year so far. And now we look over our calendars and see that there are only a few more weeks of school left, so it's tempting to take ourselves out of "Drive" and shift into "Neutral" to coast to the end of the year. For all of us, let's keep the main thing the main thing and finish this school year strong academically. Make sure you can look back at this year with no regrets.
The second aspect is for parents (and perhaps students). Education is important for all of us, but not all education is the same. So what is it that distinguishes SHCA from other schools? Beyond excellent academics and caring teachers, the spiritual dimension is integrated into every subject. With weekly chapel services, daily Bible classes, and Christian curricula for the academic subjects SHCA remains committed to providing a quality education within a Christian environment. We will continue to keep the main thing the main thing. I trust that you, the parents, will continue to keep the Christian aspect of your child's education your main focus.
Thank you for a wonderful year. The children have shown such enthusiasm through many changes. Please know your efforts are supported and appreciated.
