I’m not ready yet. I don’t think I’ve ever felt 100% ready for the first day of school. It always seems like at least one more day would make everything better. So even though I may not feel 100% ready, I am 100% excited about the new year. New families, returning families, new and returning teachers, new technologies, renewed faith, new instructional plans, a super-clean building. All of these things help us look forward to this year.

At Calvary, we most of all look forward to all of the surprises that the Father has in store for every student, teacher and parent who would take the time to ask, work and wait for his answer.

Ready or not, God is moving and we should run to keep up. Let’s believe that this year will be the best ever and that our enthusiasm won’t dimish as we count off the days left of school.
