Even in this economy there are still those who will sacrifice and give because they see the value in investing in children and they see the value in increasing the technology in the classrooms! Truly our students are our investment in the future! So with that we say thank you to the local businesses and parents below for donating to our auctions. Amazingly in this economy our 2009 Auctions raised $4,000! Which will go directly into the class rooms increasing technology through the purchase of LCD projectors. Mr. Marko was the best!
Thank you also to our parents for supporting our auctions through bidding on items! We had a lot of fun and it is exciting to see the community at large standing by Evangel Christian School and investing in our students!

Bow Flies
The forensic class just completed a study on Entomology. The students made life cycle posters of a bow fly and described how each stage of life helps a forensic scientist determine the time of death. All the students are really enjoying the class.
Mrs. Christian
Forensic Class
Students worked on how to identify questioned documents in cursive and in print. They worked in groups and tried identifying each other’s handwriting patterns. They even critiqued their own writings. They were able to examine how a person is indentified through their handwriting.

US Government
During our study of the executive branch and its many regulatory agencies, we watched several news clips on current events and discussed both the pros and cons of government regulation in American life. We also read excerpts of Milton Friedman and listened to an audio version of Kurt Vonnegut’s short story, Harrison Bergeron, which led up to a discussion on the tension between liberty and equality. If we are all equal, then does anyone have the freedom to be different? If the government regulates people so much as to keep them all at the same level of equality, can freedom still flourish? Or as Dash, a character in Pixar’s The Incredibles says, If everybody is special, then nobody is.
Mrs. Lapp
US History
As we studied the Civil War, we investigated the causes of conflict between North and South and learned that although slavery played a huge part in the War, so did the issue of states’ rights. Students performed Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address and did a video activity on the American Presidents during the pre-Civil War and Civil War eras.

Resource Room
December is such a wonderful month as everything around us remembers the birth of our Savior. This year we added Advent reflections to devotional/prayer time. Our favorite passage by Dennis Bratcher was:
“We live in a world in which bigger and better define our expectations for much of life. We have become so enamored by super size, super stars, and high definition that we tend to view life through a lens that so magnifies what we expect out of the world that we tend not to see potential in small things. But as the prophet Zechariah reminds us (Zech 4:10), we should not “despise the day of small things,” because God does some of his best work with small beginnings and impossible situations.”
The students read them and came up with their own reflections, which graced our bulletin boards. They wrote them on angel shapes and decorated their version of an angel. It is always nice to see students using their creativity especially as a way to worship.
