We have had a great third quarter here at AVCS, and I wanted to share just a few of my highlights with you. In January, I had the opportunity to go down to Rialto and watch some of your students participate in the ACSI District 4 Spelling Bee. You’ve gotta give it to these students; while everyone is enjoying Christmas break, they have a long list of spelling words that they are supposed to be studying! Our students did a great job, and Brooke Fischer got a ribbon for 4th place!
In February, I enjoyed going to basketball games and watched our girls’ basketball team make a run deep into the playoffs. Our girls made it to the semifinals before being eliminated by the team that eventually won it all. Way to go, girls! We also had our 4th annual auction in February. Lisa Kennedy did an amazing job putting this together, and the evening was a great success. We raised over $8,000 that evening!
To wrap up the third quarter, my wife and I had the awesome opportunity to go down to Pasadena and watch our high school choir participate in Musicale. Our students, under the direction of our choir teacher, Mrs. McLaughlin, participate every year in this three day event. Joy and I were only there on Friday, and we were worn out by the end. I don’t know how Mrs. McLaughlin survives! Our choir did an outstanding job and was ranked first of all 18 Southern California Christian schools in attendance! Musicale ended with a performance of all 900 students singing worship songs to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
As you can see, Spring break is needed by all, so enjoy your break. You deserve it! Be sure to take time to celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! That is really why we do what we do around here; it’s all about Jesus! I hope that you and your family will take time to celebrate our risen Savior this Easter. Have a blessed Easter and a restful and fun Spring break!
