From the High School Principal

Genesis 1:26
Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness… 

Because we are made in the image of God, every student, every teacher, every staff member of SBEC is a special individual. Each is unique in their gifts and talents and each is worthy of respect and encouragement. As we heard in chapel on January 12^th, God has a unique plan for each student and we try to provide a curriculum that nurtures the student. SBEC exists in part to help students realize what their talents are and to help them develop those talents in a safe environment where failure can occur. Our faculty and staff are ready to assist in student explorations and to pray with and for our students.

With the start of the second semester, seniors are determining their post high school plans, the spring musical Oklahoma is in rehearsal, and basketball is in mid-season. These activities, as well as the academic program, are designed to provide opportunities to help our students flourish. We want each student to reach his or her God-given potential. Since a student’s particular calling may not be known until after graduation, a varied curriculum is provided so that the student will be equipped for whatever God calls for them.

It is easy now to think ahead to spring break or even graduation and miss the daily joys that God places in our path. I try to encourage students to not look too far down the road but to enjoy each day that God provides and to experience His joy. The month of May comes soon enough. For now we will enjoy today.
