Congratulations Stephanie!  Stephanie graduated on May 6^th with the Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education from Northwest College in Kirkland, WA.  She finished with a double endorsement in history and biology.  These specializations allow her to also teach these subjects at the secondary level.  Stephanie graduated Cum Laude.  She also received a special award at the graduation ceremony.  She was one of ten graduates—out of more than 200—to be inducted into the Pi Sigma Chi Honor Society.

Stephanie will complete her student teaching this fall.  She will substitute teach for the remainder of the school year and consider contract options for the following school year.

We are proud of Stephanie for her accomplishment, but even prouder of the Christian qualities she has demonstrated these last four years while she has been many miles from home.  We are grateful to the Lord for keeping her in the hollow of his hand.  We’re very thankful for family and friends who have “been there” these last for years.  Please continue to pray for Stephanie.  Pray that God would continue to lead her as she makes important career decisions.  Pray for her parents who continue to watch her grow up!
