Time

So the plan was to blog a couples times a week or more.


So the plan was to groove on the year at SSA as each day and each event presented itself.

Guess not.



Time flies. In high school, time flies at a speed faster than light...if there is such a thing.

I started observing classes today. The physics crowd was measuring velocity and speaking knowledgeably about hundredths of seconds; the biology crowd was analyzing mystery substances [including the use of a liquid called "Benedict's" appropriately enough...the students were amused at my joy in the name...or perhaps my ignorance that the solution exists]; the English crowd was learning to do peer editing and review in a way both kind and objective - no easy task. Three classes, three dynamic teachers, three groups of deeply engaged students.

That's what we're about.

When I sit in my office and push papers I forget, quickly.


Remembering is crucial. Learning is the key. Community is the environment in which learning happens so well here. In fact, like nowhere else.

One of our recent graduates is seriously ill. Please pray. The word spread quickly here in our family; the love is already going out in prayer and cards and calls and visits. That's us. That's education in community.

Remember.
