Accelerated Math Wall of Fame 2010-11

Mr. Mitchell has posted his "Accelerated Math Wall of Fame 2010-11" on the back wall of the second floor of the Children's Center. The more objectives a student accomplishes in Accelerated Math, the closer they will get to having their name written on a pennant for the wall. This is the way it works:

White pennant - 50 objectives mastered
Blue pennant - 75 objectives mastered
Red pennant - 100 objectives mastered or more

We are thankful that Parent University provided this program a couple of years ago for our 2nd thru 8th graders. We are looking forward to more pennants going up during the year and for the wall to fill-up!

Our first three this year:
- Meghan Kline (currently at 63 mastered)
- Alexander Coval (59 mastered)
- Cole Ames (50 mastered)

Thank you teachers and parents for motivating your students!

Junior National Young Leaders Conference

Junior National Young Leaders Conference in Washigton DC


The Junior National Young Leaders Conference (JrNYLC) helps scholars develop and sharpen their leadership skills by examining the leaders of the past and empowering them to make a positive social impact in their community and the world.


Geared toward looking at leadership through a practical, everyday lens, JrNYLC incorporates a detailed examination of eight leadership traits and focuses on leaders in American history and social advocacy. Distinctive site experiences, hands-on exercises and workshops bring these concepts to life, while students work together to develop action plans that affect change within their homes and communities

7th Grade Mission 25:40 and former "Full House" Star

Candace Cameron, now Candace Cameron Bure, formerly the character of D.J. Tanner from the TV show, Full House, responded back from letters of encouragement from our 7th graders after they watched her 700 Club testimony:

Hi Mr. Mitchell and the 7th grade class at Fort Meyers Christian School!



I wanted to personally thank each and every one of you for the special letters of encouragement you wrote to me. I'm thrilled to know you were able to watch my segment on the 700 Club and that it inspired many of you.

I too have a 7th grader of my own, my daughter Natasha. Middle School, can be a trying time and I'm excited to know that you're all getting your education founded upon our Lord Jesus Christ. He is our everything! No matter how good or how bad things seem to be, just remember that God is on your side when you're obedient to Him.


Many blessings to you all- and thanks again for taking the time to write to me!


In Christ,

~Candace
