Students Chosen by their Teachers and Principals Because of their Character and the Way they Exemplify Biblical Values

Lorelai, Third Grade

Lorelai is a beautiful example of how God intended us to see those around us. She sees her classmates as unique creations of God and sees past any flaws. She exemplifies biblical values. The verses that come to mind about Lorelai’s character are Ephesians 5:1-2 – “Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.”

Estaban, Fourth Grade

Esteban has a boldness for his faith and a strong desire to serve others. He is a friend to those who seem to need a friend and is quick to show love to others. He has had a heart for the homeless from a very young age and is a Graced Ministry Ambassador, where he has served in many ways including helping to feed, clothe and pray over the homeless in the community.

Zach, Sixth Grade

Zach is an example of the values that are upheld at CCS—kindness, generosity, selflessness. A new student joined our school who had recently moved to the United States. Not only was CCS a new school, but everything was new for this student. Zach reached out to the new student and was a true friend; he helped with explaining the daily schedule, what to expect during athletics, the rules of football and any other questions that might arise. Zach saw someone who needed a friend and he stepped into that gap without being asked.

Let no one look down on your youthfulness, but rather in speech, conduct, love, faith and purity, show yourself an example of those who believe.

~ 1 Timothy 4:12

Katie, Eighth Grade

Katie joined the CCS family as a sixth-grader. Her heart for academic excellence, obedience and sensitivity to the needs of others demonstrates the “One Heart” motto. Katie looks for ways to go beyond the academic expectations of her teachers as she takes three high school-level classes in eighth grade. Katie never complains, but rather encourages and supports others. Katie sees opportunities to reach out to fellow students and works quietly and humbly to serve. Katie is a great example of what it means to be a CCS Warrior!

David, Senior

David has a quiet and thoughtful confidence in him. He has qualities of attentiveness, compassion, contentment, dependability, determination, gentleness, initiative, orderliness, responsibility, self-control, sincerity and wisdom. David often seems to be deep in thought. He takes his time to understand things, cares for the welfare of others and has a desire to please God in all that he does. He is well respected by his classmates and is a great example of what it looks like to be a Christian young man.

Elizabeth, Senior

Elizabeth has a quiet, yet fun-loving spirit in her. She has qualities of compassion, availability, enthusiasm, joyfulness, obedience, self-control, responsibility and sincerity. She is a blessing to be around and her friends are drawn to her for many of these same qualities. She can almost always be seen with a smile on her face which also demonstrates godly love for the people around her.
