We would like to introduce you to our newest “staff member” (Heart Helper), Bennie the Therapy Dog. Bennie is a 2 year-old male Bernedoodle who has graduated from the Therapy Dog Program at Duffy’s Dog Training Center. He is trained to be able to assist and provide emotional support to students and staff in a variety of ways. Bennie’s training was funded by the Kolton Kaiser Foundation, which is a Christian organization that sponsors Therapy Dogs in many of the schools in Southern Indiana.
To provide support for the school’s mission, encouragement, and unconditional love to students and staff.
Bennie is excited to help provide a fun and uplifting school culture here at CAI.
Be sure and give Bennie a “paw wave” when you see him!

"For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and to those who are perishing" (New International Version, 2 Corinthians 2:15)
My name is Dr. Wendy Wagoner. It is my third year at CAI and it is my joy to coordinate Spiritual Life at CAI with K-5th grade students. I grew up in the Hoosier Heartland of Indiana with a call to teach kids about Jesus since I was ten years old. I have a BS in Christian Education, a Masters Degree in Education and Early Childhood Education. I defended my research on the topic of strategies for spiritual formation of early elementary students at Regent University School of Education. I lived in Tanzania, East Africa for eleven years working with a Foundation to help East Africa with educational efforts and to spread the gospel within the dusty land. We will explore Spiritual Disciplines along with ways to make head and heart connections daily with God. I look forward to partnering with you on this great adventure of raising a generation who "Praises the Lord!"
