Academics at Champion

I have been at Champion since July of 2006. I earned a BA degree in music from Westmont College and before coming here was a Bible Study Fellowship teaching leader for 6 years. I work full time as the Registrar and am privileged to teach 10th grade Bible (The New Testament).  My appreciation for Champion runs deep.  When hired I was able to have my daughter come for her last 2 years of high school.  Having her brothers attend public school and my daughter 2 years at a public high school I was able to experience/witness the contrast between the public and Christian environment as well as the smaller class size.  I asked my daughter what she appreciated about Champion.  Hands down it was the freedom to express Christian values and more pointedly the absense of gang activity and general lack of morals endured in the public school.  Here I witnessed her being accepted and loved by fellow students.  As a parent I appreciated the personal involvement of her teachers encouraging her even in her most difficult classes.  For me working here is a God given privilege.  To be able to encourage students in their faith walk, and provide them with a working knowledge of scripture is a wonderful challenge and joy.
