We will begin class with the pledge, Star Spangled Banner, and the Lord’s Prayer as we have done in the past. We will then begin working in our new workbooks called Biblical Choices for a New Generation.</p> <p>We will still have Elementary School Chapel on Thursday and Friday. Thursday, Mr. Purcell or Mrs. Sutlive will focus on a specific fruit of the spirit for each month, and Friday, Mrs. Lester and Mr. Strawn will lead praise and worship as well as memory verse challenge. Each grade level will memorize their own verse and recite it as a grade level in chapel, Teachers will have each individual child recite the verse in class for Bible verse challenge.</p> <p>Every week there will be a Christian Education letter on the back of the Fourth Grade Newsletter letting you know what we will be studying, what items we will need for our activities, and ways you can make a school-home connection. This week we will be introducing the new curriculum and the school-wide Bible verse for the year.</p> <p>School Wide Bible Verse 2011-2012: “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.

Not only do our students excel academically, but socially, spiritually and physically as well. We strive to help our students learn to love and love to learn.</p> <p>BFCS is an interdenominational Christian school that focuses on sharing the unconditional love and grace of God while offering an exceptional and challenging academic program. We instruct our students not only in the basic three R's of reading, writing and arithmetic; but also in the three R's for a joyful and productive life: Reverence for God and all of His creation, Respect for one's self and one's fellow man, and Responsibility for contributing to making the world a better place.</p> <hr> <h3>UIW Brainpower Connection</h3> <p>BFCS graduates who complete the 8th grade with a B average or better (minimum 3.0 GPA) will be awarded annual $2,500 scholarships to one of UIW’s two Brainpower Connection high schools as well as UIW.

I realize this is a very important commitment in your life as it impacts greatly on your children. Buckner Fanning is a small school and sits in the triangle of three mega public elementary schools. There are many advantages to enrolling in this small <br> country-type, Christian school. As Head of School, I am convinced that BFCS is the best investment for your child. I would like to take this opportunity to share those with you.</p> <p>First and foremost, I strongly believe that this is an educational journey, not a race. At BFCS, we make sure God is in that journey. We start each day praying the Lord’s Prayer, learning about His Word, praising God through song and pledging allegiance to our flag. Christian Education is taught in the classroom, not only in singular lessons, but throughout the day in all we do and say. Our children are treated with respect and kindness. We believe in discipline not punishment. Corrective measures are always carried out in light of Biblical principles and the love of Jesus Christ.</p> <p>Another advantage we have here at BFCS is our small class sizes. We are committed to keeping the class sizes low. There are grades that may have larger populations; they are still considerably smaller than the average public school class ranging from 22 to 26 students. Our teachers offer 1:1 tutoring after school when students require help or enriched activities. Our teachers are always available to discuss your child. Over 60% of our teachers hold Masters Degrees and all of them are certified in the areas that they teach.</p> <p>We have achieved our goal of accreditation with many accolades and three recommended goals toward which to work. You can find and read the full accreditation report <a href="http://www.bucknerfanningschool.org/PDFs/accreditation_report.pdf">here</a>. Thank you to all the famillies, teachers, volunteers and staff that made the goal of accreditation become a reality for the school.</p> <p>Buckner Fanning is an Official Core Knowledge Visitation School, standing as an example to other schools who are considering becoming a Core Knowledge schools. We base our curriculum on ongoing research that supports the newest and most fundamental principles of education. Our curriculum is solid, specific, sequenced and shared. This is evidenced by the progress our students make while here at BFCS and the advanced placements they receive when they leave us.</p> <p>I also feel our students have been very blessed by the partnership with Incarnate Word University which affords our hardworking students the ability to earn up to $20,000 in scholarship money over the course of their high school and college careers.</p> <p>God bless,<br> John</p> <hr> <h3>Parent participation</h3> <p>Parent participation at BFCS is not only valued but also necessary to maintain a successful campus. Therefore, we encourage all parents to become involved in supporting the school through helping with planning and carrying out special celebrations and activities, serving as room mothers, assisting in the lunchroom, campus beautification, sponsoring clubs and organizations that meet after school, working with community service projects, assisting with fund-raising efforts and driving on field trips.</p> <p>Of course, these are just a few suggestions; you may have other talents that you would like to contribute to our school. We know that everyone is very busy and that some are even single working parents; however, there are still ways you can contribute your time. Offer to do things at home for your child/children's teacher or for the front office. Every little bit helps!</p> <p>If you feel that you are just not able to provide your time or talents, a monetary donation would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>We are asking for every parent to commit to doing at least five hours of parent participation each nine weeks. This not only helps the teachers and staff but it enables us to cut expenses, which, in turn, saves you tuition dollars.</p> <p>We would like to keep this as a volunteer system rather than required participation hours, but we need everyone's commitment to be successful. Therefore, please think about this and what you can do to enhance your child/children's education and campus. If you would like your hours of participation documented, we can certainly put a system in place and eventually add it to our website.</p> <p>Here is a list of some of the areas of need:</p> <ul> <li>Fall pictures</li> <li>Pasta and Prayer</li> <li>Bike Rodeo</li> <li>Grandparents' Day</li> <li>Fall Festival</li> <li>Golf tournament</li> <li>Thanksgiving Feast</li> <li>Donuts for Dads</li> <li>Spring pictures</li> <li>Fiesta/Field Day</li> <li>Muffins for Moms (or Tacos for Terrific Moms)</li> <li>Teacher Appreciation Week</li> <li>Talent show</li> <li>Pre-kindergarten graduation</li> <li>Middle school graduation</li> <li>Gardening helpers</li> <li>Lunchroom volunteers</li> <li>Library helpers</li> </ul> </div> <div> <div> </div></div> (author unknown)Updates from the Buckner Fanning Christian School parents' pageLeAnnatag:google.com,2005:reader/user/01170265672488427298/source/com.google/linktag:google.com,2005:reader/item/fd377d8eec64e9f02011-08-23T04:27:39Z2011-08-23T04:27:39Z<blockquote>Shared by LeAnna <br> Latest news from Buckner Fanning Christian School.</blockquote> <h2>Latest news</h2> <h3>Welcome back!</h3> <p>School starts Tuesday with First Day Chapel.
