"Meet Justin" an interview by Frank

This past week I interviewed Justin - a thirteen-year-old eighth grader. Justin's favorite subject is math. In case some of you don't already know, Justin is a skilled horseback rider. One of his fondest school memories is our annual trip to Camp Shiloh. Justin loved Christmas break and getting together with family and friends. His favorite athletes are Mark Teixera from the New York Yankees, and Marion Gaborik from the New York Rangers. One day Justin would love to travel to Italy (what a shock). In the future, Justin would like to be a doctor. His peers think he has a unique sense of humor, a good heart, a bright mind, is fun to be around, and is lovable.

Justin's teacher says, "Justin adds so much life to our class (along with his cohort in crime!) Since he and Megan have been upstairs in the Junior-Senior high school, the class now has 1st break treats, coffee all day, and cocoa with whipped cream! (How can I say "No" to the Bobbsey Twins?) Justin is a very good and polite boy; he's very bright and quick to learn new concepts and adapt to new methods in class. Justin is also a superb student who also has many extra-curricular interests. We are so glad he's in our class!"

An Interview with Stephan by Frank

I would like you to meet Stephan. Stephan is also known as Stabe, Sven II, Gutenberg the Epic, and Stabone. Stephan, a junior in High school, loves math. He enjoys playing the piano, modifying computers, and eating Greek food. Stephan spends his leisure time listening to Bach and would love to travel to Italy one day. His fondest school memory is the time that Mrs. Graf surprised all the school students by bringing them bowling on April Fool’s Day. Stephan’s favorite book is Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea. Unique, best friend, talented, one-of-a-kind, idealistic, witty, computer-savvy, and uplifting are all words that Stephan’s classmates used to describe him.

Stephan’s teacher, Mrs. Androvich, had this to say about her student:
If we had “Superlatives” in our school, Stephan would most probably be voted “Most Individualistic.” Stephan is not afraid to stand alone in his opinions, and in these days and times, that is certainly an asset! He is an independent, hard worker, and a gifted writer (it runs in his family!) The Lord has given Stephan an exceptional way with words and invariably is called upon for his unique and witty sentences in English Class. Stephan is an integral and important student in our class and we love him!

Megan Androvich

Today I am interviewing Megan Androvich, one of our wonderful school bloggers. Megan is a thirteen-year-old girl in the eighth grade who enjoys horseback riding, reading, and drawing. Her favorite pastime event in school is the youth group’s annual trip to Camp Shiloh. During the school day, Megan enjoys doing math above all the other subjects. If she could choose, Megan would have chicken Caesar salad for lunch every day. Megan’s favorite season is winter because of the many fun activities the Christmas season holds, including the annual Christmas recital held by Mrs. Fryman and Ashley Graf. Since Megan loves to cook, she would like to work as a chef one day. Megan’s favorite Bible verse is I John 2:25, “And this is the promise that he hath promised us, even eternal life.” Her classmates think she is a good friend, sweet, kind, energetic, courageous, fun, bright, and caring.
Her teacher says Megan is a bright, energetic student (and daughter!) who adds life and good-natured fun to our classroom (i.e. the changing of the clock 1 hour ahead conspiracy!) She is a lovely, good girl who strives to be upright in her character and pleasing to the Lord. The Bible says, “Every good gift… is from above,” and Megan is truly the Lord’s gift to me!
