2019 Honors Convocation

Each year we gather to thank God for our young people:

Young people who have distinguished themselves through acts of service to our school or achievement through our school;
Young people who have prepared for a life dedicated to future service and excellence;
Young people who have been a blessing to us and who will now be a blessing to their churches and communities.

“To these….God gave knowledge and understanding of all kinds of literature and learning.”

— Daniel 1:17
