Computer Class

Students love when they have computer class! Here at Upper Room Christian School our students have computer class at least twice a week and some grades have daily classes. Here is one of our 2nd graders at her computer station learning basic keyboarding skills.

The world of Education is changing both radically and rapidly. More and more schools are switching from traditional learning classrooms to blended learning classrooms which bring into the classroom resources and ways to learn that were never available before!

We here at Upper Room are purchasing state of the art smart boards, expanding our wireless capabilities and adding Moodle to our school this year to stay on the cutting edge of the trends in Education.

To God be the glory!

Chapel with Nathan and Mary Ironside

We had an awesome Chapel Service today at the school! We had Nathan and Mary Ironside formerly with Hillsong Ministries in Australia! First Jesse and Elyssa opened up the service with a beautiful worship song. Then we gave it over to Nathan who introduced his wife Mary. They both spoke about the importance of Worship. That we were created for worship and that we all worship something.

Later on Nathan who has produced over thirty CD's internationally strapped on his guitar and began to minister in song while our school band backed him up. The students were singing, clapping and dancing as we celebrated and worship God together!

Afterward Nathan had an altar call where he and Mary prayed for over 100 students who responded to rededicate their lives to the Lord and to a lifestyle of worship. We are so blessed to have a Christian School where the name of Jesus is lifted up and obedience to His word is paramount!

Blessings,
