Annual Summary 2007-2008 School Year
Clarendon Christian Learning Center experienced a very fruitful year with over 800 students attending.
At the high school level, 21 students were given academic credit as we surveyed the old and new testaments during first and second semester respectively. Other than the Bible, Image to Image by Wendy Robinson was the main curriculum. Occasionally lessons were taught at a local restaurant providing visibility to the community. Two trips to Water Missions International were enjoyed by the students. 2,000 Spanish Bibles were processed and sent to hurricane victims in Honduras. Assistance in sending sustainable water treatment systems to Myanmar and China gave students a clear understanding of missions work.
36 junior high students participated in 4, 9-week sessions this year. What the Bible Says to Me by Scripture Union provided the outline for this Bible-survey class. One class was held in the teacher’s home demonstrating family devotionals in this setting. Seeing a need for personal relationships and follow-up for young adolescent females, a 2-week summer program for interested students is being planned.
402 elementary students attended CCLC one day per week all year. The curriculum used was Firm Foundations. Two additional classes totaling 17 special needs students were structured using a variety of resources. All elementary students enjoyed a Christmas party at a local café dedicated to providing a Christian atmosphere for young teens.
All students in grades 4-12 were given The Invitation CD by Rick Warren at the end of the year.
At the primary school level, 329 students walked over to CCLC where they were taught from Route 52. At year end, all second graders were presented with Hands On Bibles and all third graders were given a DVD from Global Recordings, The Living Christ.
We can see the hand of God at work daily at CCLC. Many students are asking very good spiritual questions and several have made a decision to ask Christ to be their personal Savior and Redeemer. We consider it an honor to work with these students every day.
