So here I am at this conference... (Entry for 11/10/06)

...and I'm so loving my job. Our school sends us each year to the Mid-Atlantic Christian School Association (MACSA) Educator's conference, which consists of two days of workshops for teachers. The workshops are usually various subjects ranging from apologetics courses to get credits in Bible, to computer classes aimed at keeping people informed. The school not only pays for our way to the two-day conference, but it also provides us with 10 dollars a day for lunch. I find that quite astounding and benevolent.

Right now I'm taking advantage of the free wireless access here at the hotel where the conference is to write this blog. Its very encouraging to see that there are so many Christian School teachers out there with a desire to learn and enhance their teaching skills. Sometimes I think that Christian Schools get a reputation for having teachers that are too under-qualified to be a public school teacher. While that might be the case in some schools (even public), its good to see that these teachers have not only a passion for what they do as teachers, but also a passion and sacrificial desire to serve God as well.
