Through the eyes of an SBEC student, this week was full of excitement. Our football team, the band, the cheerleaders, and the students had the privilege of riding buses to Knoxville, Tennessee to play the Spartans at Webb High School in the quarter finals of the state playoffs. Although we didn’t win, it was a wonderful opportunity to bond with friends.
SBEC is challenging academically but thankfully we have wonderful teachers to help us. Ms. Holbrook, my English teacher, has us working on a research paper based on the book, “Our Town” by Thornton Wilder. Ms. Holbrook is always willing to help and guide you. She makes a great connection with her students and fellow teachers. She is a strong example of a follower of Christ. I’m blessed to have such wonderful teachers as Ms. Holbrook to look up to.
Since my older sister and brother have graduated from SBEC, I have had the opportunity to appreciate all that SBEC offers. Being a student ambassador, varsity cheerleader, member of the National Thespian Society, secretary of the high school choir, and a member of the St. Jude Club, I can personally say there are many growing experiences for me. In the St. Jude Club, we made an assortment of hats for the kids at the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to enjoy and wear. We all had the opportunity to work together and give to others in need.
Basketball season is just around the corner and we are prepared to cheer our teams on. I’m looking forward to a winning season for both the girls & boys teams.
Wrapping up the week I would just like to say the spiritual as well as education growth is a focus of the school every day. My application of daily life is reinforced with spiritual guidance through each class and activity. I’m extremely blessed to have the opportunity to attend such a well rounded, Christian-based school. Therefore, I want to thank God, my parents, and the staff at SBEC.
