Ada Christian School has gone through lots of phases but I think the things that's stayed constant through the whole thing is the family feel in this place. It's the legacy that has lived here since those first people met in the late 1940s and said "we want a Christian school in this area for our children." And each generation God has provided teachers and families that embrace that and carry it forward.
It's a great academic school. It's a well rounded education. It can be vigorous but our kids are so well equipped for those next steps in high school, college and beyond.
Probably my favorite thing about teaching is posing a question and having kids kind of wrestle with that.
When I get older I wanna be a veterinarian so I just love learning all I can in the sciences.
In geography, one of my main goals with my students is to help them understand that the world is a much bigger than themselves. This world is a diverse, large, wonderful place.
They are very, very thoughtful and deliberate about the kinds of technology used at different levels.
The commitment to fine arts here helps to develop the whole child. The creativity. That whole brain, that whole child and make really successful people.
The athletics are an important part of Ada Christian.
The idea is that you serve God with your body, in sport because you want to develop a healthy lifestyle forever.
Ada Christian truly is distinctly Christian. This is a place that truly loves God, desires to serve God. And we are equipping our students so that they can be people that share God's love.
We provide a very good foundation for our students from young five up to 8th grade.
Being a Christian school, we really need to focus on how to we instill Christian values into our kids. And I can only do so much as a parent throughout the course of the week. So to have Faith Strong as a key component of our education here, it means that the work I'm trying to do, the school is backing me up with.
I've seen God in the teachers. They're all really nice and they relate God to everything. And you can see how He's influences their lives.
I don't think they look at it as a job. They look at it as a journey into your children's lives.
It was so engaging for the kids. Our hearts just melted and we said "this is the place for our children."
This is a place where you can be part of a great community. We're going to partner well with parents and teachers to make sure that your student will have a successful, great time here at Ada Christian.
We can have strong academics, we can have strong athletics but it's also about community.
One of the things that Ada Christian does so exceptionally well is developing the whole child. The mind in the rigorous academics, the body in the sports programs that we have. It's the soul in the spiritual aspects and elements of what they do. Kids understand they can make an impact in their local community and in the future, they can have an impact on the global community as well.
We believe we offer a world class, high quality Christian education for our students and we want to share that gift with as many people as we can.
