Today has been set aside to honor a man who did much to insure that
all of mankind has an equal opportunity in this great nation of ours.
Martin Luther King showed us that change can be made through peaceful demonstrations. He showed us that we do not have to strike back when someone does us wrong. He made so many of us to stop and look at the way things were being done in this nation and that the way we had been doing things was not right.

His dream was that one day we would be one; one in opportunity, one in support of this nation, and where each one would be paid a living wage. We have come a long way, but there still is more to do. It is now up to us to carry forth what Martin Luther King and others like him, started. If this nation is to ever achieve what it is able to accomplish, it is going to take all of us doing our part. I like the words of John F. Kennedy when he said, "Ask not what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country."

Men of all colors have fought and died for the freedoms we enjoy today and will continue to do so. Martin Luther King fought and died for a cause in which he believed. Are we willing to do the same? Are we willing to take a part in helping this great nation to be what MLK envisioned? If so we must be willing participants in the democratic process. We must not tear down but build up by being good citizens of the land in which we live. We must ask what can I do for my country.

I think this is what Dr. King would have wanted.

TOURNAMENT

Tuesday, January 3, 2012

 

   It is good to be back after the Christmas break.  I hope that the time off refreshed you as it did me.  It is hard for me to realize that it is 2012.  It seems the older I get the faster time flies.  Won’t it be grand when we get to heaven and not have to worry about time.  Here on this earth though, we must use our time wisely and in service to our Creator.

   I want to congratulate our Middle School girls for winning the Morrison Ruritan Invitational Basketball Tournament.  I also encourage you to come out and see our students play.  All the teams, elementary through high school, play hard and give their best efforts every night.  I know the teams will appreciate your support.

   This current school year will be over before we know it and we must plan for the 2012-13 school year.  It is my hope and prayer that all of our current students will be returning and that several new students will be coming our way.  If you know of anyone who is considering sending their children to BCS and you think it would help by my talking to them, please let me know.  More than anything else, we need to increase our enrollment.

In closing, I would like to thank each and every student who remembered me at Christmas with gifts, homemade candy, and sweet cards.  Truly, I am blessed to be working at Boyd Christian School with such a wonderful family of students, faculty, and staff.
                   January 3, 2012
 
Welcome back to our students, parents, faculty, and staff!
 
Report cards will go out Thursday, January 5th.  If any parent is in need of a conference, please contact the school office to schedule that appointment.
 
Reminder to parents:  Please remember to watch News Channel 2 for winter weather information and school closings.  Also, we have several Foodland Plus Cards on hand for sale and Kroger cards are always an easy fundraiser for the school.
 
On behalf of Boyd Christian School, we would like to offer our sincere thanks to Mr. Ray Talbert of Homeland Community Bank for sponsoring the recent workshop “Healthy Choices for Youth”.  This workshop was organized for both public and private schools in Warren County to discuss very important issues students are facing today such as teen suicide, ADD, ADHD, anxiety, and depression.  Homeland Bank generously gave each guidance counselor a $500 voucher to purchase materials being sold at the workshop.  Books purchased for Boyd School included subjects on bullying, anxiety, depression, divorce, OCD, ADD, ADHD, and building character, just to name a few.
Please take the time to thank Mr. Talbert for his concern for the youth in Warren County and his investment in their future.
