你为什么最终决定来东电?
在一次旅行中，我去了这里的教堂. 我在那里呆了大概两分钟，我就想，就是这样了. I found it. It feels like home. 我花了好几天想弄明白, 我走出教堂，在那一刻, I thought that’s the school.

The community was so welcoming. And the school was strong in its faith and I could tell that from when I walked in. And the fact that every class was taught from a biblical worldview just drew me in because I wanted to understand how that works. 这就是我来这里的原因.

你最欣赏欧共体的什么?
I appreciate that everyone works well together and no one is left out in any situation. In those situations, 这表明他们有多么坚定的信仰, and they are strong in being loving toward one another and caring about each other.

我被安排到有挑战性的班级，这很好. 有这么多俱乐部也不错. 我也很感激有这么多机会上荣誉课, as I am in two this semester. It has been a great change in my life that has opened more doors of opportunity.

你想对那些想要作为新生加入欧共体的学生说些什么?
你一走进来，就会有人迎接你. And every time you walk in, 有一张新面孔，一张欢迎的面孔, and they want to get to know you. They want to welcome you in and they want to see someone come and join their community.

新葡京app如何改变你孩子的生活?? 如果他们没有来这里，你认为会有什么不同? 

EC has offered an atmosphere for our children to hear the messages of our home reinforced from other important adults in their lives-messages of faith and character.

How has the staff and/or administration partnered with you to nurture your child’s spirit and engage your child’s mind? 

The teachers and staff at EC have spent quality time getting to know our children-both strengths and weaknesses. EC has offered special curriculum to allow their strengths to excel and spent extra time with us as parent to find effective ways of supporting the areas of development still to grow.

对你来说，新葡京app经历中最有价值的部分是什么? 

For us, the dedication of staff to model the love of Christ to our children daily is the most valuable part of the education at EC.

We are thankful for a place that speaks the truths of Scripture to our children.

Our daughter started PK4 this school year, and our experience has been nothing short of amazing! 从学术到培育她的精神成长, 看到我们的孩子热爱PK的每一天，我们高兴极了. 她学到了很多东西，结交了新朋友，并且爱她的每一位老师. It’s a true testament of how a school should come alongside a child and nurture so many aspects that make up their whole person. We LOVE EC!

Dr. Donna Furrey

Teacher

曾是新葡京app的学生, I know first hand the impact that a Christian school teacher can have on a student’s life. 我将永远感激我的中学科学老师. Although I may not remember any of her lessons, I clearly remember the impact she had on my life. I am so blessed to have the opportunity to return to EC and share my three loves — love of God, 热爱教学，热爱孩子. What an incredible opportunity to be part of a school that holds both academic excellence and biblical truth in such high regard. 

Eric & Stella Osae-Twum

Parents

What do you love about EC?

我们很高兴我们的孩子每天都能在学校里听到新葡京app上帝的事. The bible instructs us in Deuteronomy 6:7 to teach the word of God to our children when we sit at home and when we walk along the road, when we lie down and when we get up. 因为他们每天在学校呆7个小时, we are grateful that they do not miss out on hearing God’s word during this period. Our faith and love for God as a community also unifies us and this helps to bridge cultural differences. 我们有幸拥有真诚的朋友.

您为什么为您的孩子选择新葡京app?

• We believe in partnering with the Church and School to raise godly children and EC offered that partnership
• 令人印象深刻的物理结构和大胆的圣经经文
• 比我们当时所在的公立学校环境更加多样化
• Supportive staff
• 温暖的环境，真正的家庭关系可以建立

In what ways have you seen your children grow in their faith as a result of their experience at Eastern Christian School?

我们的孩子喜欢音乐，喜欢在学校学习新的基督教歌曲. 他们也喜欢学习新的圣经经文. The opportunity to come together for chapel every week has taught them that worshipping God is continuous and not a Sunday affair. They are also learning to view things from a Godly perspective as this is emphasized in the subjects taught.

What would you tell another parent to encourage them to consider enrolling their child at Eastern Christian School?

在我们成长的环境中，学校教导我们信仰上帝. 不幸的是，在我们现在的文化中，情况并非如此. For everyone who values a Christ centered education for their children, EC is a good place for you. Here you get to partner with the school in raising a generation of children who are bold in declaring their faith and living godly lives.
