Welcome to Grade 9

My name is Jeremy Schindel and I am your son or daughters home room teacher for the 2023/2024 school year at CCS. Our class theme this year is "See Clearly" which is taken from 1 Corinthians 13:12

It is the same with us. Now we see a dim reflection, as if we were looking into a mirror, but then we shall see clearly. Now I know only a part, but then I will know fully, as God has known me. 

This passage of scripture reminds me that there is something to look forward to and something to strive for in our faith. So while we may never fully know this side of eternity, we can strive to see things more clearly in our day to day lives about God's presence, his purpose, and his guidance. That is why we will be exploring how we can see God more clearly with the actions of our head (Theology), our hearts (Devotion), and our hands (Service). 

I will be teaching the grade nines Math, Science, Health, and Bible. Social will be taught by Mr. Ward, their L.A. teacher will be either Ms. Moody or Mr. Henink, and Mr. Drader will be their physical education teacher. 

I have always said to my new grade seven students that the transition into junior high can be a big step. Well, the transition out of junior high is also a big step. Along the way we have a lot of exciting things to look forward to (junior high retreat and graduation just to name a few). I will do my best to keep an open line of communication with you so that we can best support your child in their learning and development, and I promise to pray for you and your family and ask that you do the same for me.

In Christ, 

Mr. J. Schindel
