What do you love about Eastern Christian School?
I love how EC is such a tightly knit family that I have grown into. The teachers are not only there for you academically, but on a personal level, too. They care about you, your life, and how you are doing. The students are compassionate and caring and make some of the best friends I’ve ever had.
Describe one of your favorite teachers at EC.
One of my favorite teachers is Mrs. Kuehlke. She is the writing teacher for 7th and 8th grade and excellent at what she does. Not only that but she also took time to help me with my own project, meeting with me after and before school to encourage me in my pursuit. Not very many teachers would be willing to sacrifice that much time for another student, but she did, and that I will never forget.
In what ways have you grown in your faith as a result of your experience at Eastern Christian School?
Bible class is just one other thing I have to be thankful for at EC. Through Bible, I have a deeper understanding of God’s word and thanks to a very awesome Bible teacher, I know things about the Bible I never knew or thought of before. Also, I’ll never forget how many of the students here are so willing to pray with me whenever I need to. That is a spiritual need you don’t often find in other schools.
The Eastern Christian tagline is “Engaging. Nurturing. Transforming.” How did you experience an education that is engaging, nurturing and transforming at EC?
I have been from the start engaged, nurtured, and transformed from being here. The teachers engage and nurture you and your entire experience here at EC is transforming, no way around it.
How do you feel that EC prepared you for graduation, college and life?
One way EC has prepared me is through the grading scale. Even though the tough grading scale EC has might be a pain, it has, in the end, challenged me and prepared me for my future.
What would you say to a new student considering joining Eastern Christian School?
JOIN RIGHT NOW!!!!! EC is amazing and a huge blessing. The community, the teachers, and the students are life changing. WHY WAIT?
What opportunities do you experience at EC that you don’t think you would have gotten to experience anywhere else?
EC is my family, and I haven’t really experienced that in any other school OR country. I experience the care and love of the teachers here, the deep learning I get, and the classes that prepare me for my future in a way I never have before. Thank you, EC!
