Janelle, Grade 5, Began at Eastern Christian in Grade 4

What do you love about Eastern Christian School?
What I love about EC is the caring teachers. Unlike other teachers in other schools, (like the ones I used to go to), they actually care for you, have sympathy, compassion, and aren’t mean.

Describe one of your favorite teachers and tell why he/she is a favorite:
I like Ms. Vandenberg, because she stays on track, she’s just the right amount of strict, as well as just the right amount of humorous and fun!

In what ways have you grown in your faith as a result of your experience at Eastern Christian School?
I have been able to connect to God more openly, and have other people that are right by my side who share my faith and are encouraging.

The Eastern Christian tagline is “Engaging. Nurturing. Transforming.” How do you experience an education that is engaging, nurturing and transforming at EC?
Engaging– They always keep you on track, and enjoying the subject.
Nurturing– We have Bible! It nurtures me and brings me closer to God.
Transforming– They have transformed me in my faith. I get closer to God, and stronger in my faith in Him, along with my friends and teachers.

How do you feel that EC is preparing you for graduation, college and life? What are your plans after you graduate?
I don’t really have an answer. But if I did, I assure you it would be positive! Plans for my future include charity, maybe singing, preaching, all sorts of things! EC helps me get there!

Please provide any additional information that might be helpful to include in your story:
Before I came to EC, I was in a public school, and bullied a lot. EC has really helped me heal over that. THANK YOU EC!!!!!
