         Principal's Message to Parents



 

March 6, 2010



Dear RAA Parents,


When I look around this time of year and see the first blossoms of spring, I’m reminded again that we serve a God who is the Master Designer.  We are blessed to live in a place that sparkles with great, natural beauty.


Spring is not just a beautiful time of year, it’s a busy one.  RAA freshman and sophomores recently attended a weekend Bible conference called “Unplugged” at Leoni Meadows.  The conference was about taking the time to unplug and get connected to God.  It’s great to see students energized by this type of event.  One student told me, “The conference made me think about what I do every day.  Am I representing God in how I do something?  Do I really need to do this or that?”  Another said, “The leaders really understood what we go through as teenagers and what we can do to get ‘unplugged.’”  In straight-up talk, another student told me, “It wasn’t too deep, but just the right amount.  Those who put it on didn’t get obsessive.  It really made me think.”


Music students are in rehearsal for the spring musical “The Prince of Egypt.”  Dinner performances will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday, April 20 and 21.  The benefit performance is scheduled for Thursday, April 22.  A special matinee for seniors and school kids will be at 1:00 on Monday April 19.


Junior and seniors are headed to Lodi for a music festival and concert the first weekend in March.  The following weekend our bell choir participates in a festival at La Sierra University and then plays at Disneyland by invitation.  On March 17, high school students and a group of parents leave for the mission trip to Belize.  


Adventist Christian education has always focused on involving students in wholesome, extra-curricular activities that uplift them and provide a good outlet for their talents and energies.  We know that by providing these opportunities, our students are in a better position to make smart choices.   This is a big part of our mission here at RAA.


Remember, spring break begins March 22.  Enjoy the time off!


Model the Master,



Lance Taggart
