An Unabashedly Christian Education

I must be honest.

I was something like nervous about teaching in a Christian school. Throughout the course of my teacher training, I observed, tutored, and taught in public schools, while attending a public university. Perhaps it sounds odd, after attending a K-12 Christian school, that just 4 years in a secular setting would have such an affect. But it did.

However, after today, Day One, my almost-nervousness is lessened. I so heartily appreciate my Christian education, and I'm so excited to be teaching in a Christian school. We opened the assembly with prayer. I have to include "Spiritual Integration" in each lesson plan. We have spiritual emphasis week sometime next year. I have Psalm 19:14 posted above my white board, a reminder to me as much as to my students as we start studying language:

"Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, O Lord, my Strength, and my Redeemer."
