THANKSGIVING IS UPON US!

A lot has transpired since October 1st. Our Cross Country teams each took 4th place in the state in their first year of competition. Emily Dundore placed 2nd in the state! Berean Baptist Academy unveiled its new lighted school sign that also has a marquee. Our girls Varsity volleyball team took 4th place in the 2A division of our state! Seventeen of our senior students traveled to Pensacola Christian College in Florida to experience college life for 2 days. This trip was made possible by the funding of ABeka curriculum which is produced there on the PCC campus. Several of our seniors and their families have made trips, or will be making trips, to other Christian colleges in the days and weeks to come. Five of our Advanced Band members participated in the NCCSA State Band Festival held at Wake Christian Academy in Raleigh. These were several days of intense instruction that culmintaed with 3 fantastic concerts given on Saturday, November 15th. Basketball tryouts were held, completed, and teams chosen for the 2008/2009 Bulldog season! All 4 teams played their first games on Tuesday, November 18th at Massey Hill Baptist Church. JV boys lost a heartbreaker 37-35 in overtime. The JV girls, Varsity girls, and Varsity boys each won their contests. Thanksgiving break begins 1 week from today. This is an extremely special time for believers to spend time with their family and friends as we reflect upon how good our God really is to us and to our nation. Thank you, Lord, for all of your good and perfect gifts!
