Over the months of March and April, our students have participated in various competitions on the state and national level in the areas of music, speech, art, and academics.  State winners on the High School level went on to the American Association of Christian Schools national competition held April 10-12 at Bob Jones University in Greenville, SC.  There were approximately 2,200 students from 33 states who competed.  On the national level, Colton Beach and Cody Gorski placed second in duet acting, Hannah Maggio placed second in sculpture, and Brenda Terry placed second in photography.

Congratulations to Senior Cody Gorski who was selected as Ft. Jackson's 2012 Volunteer of the Year. Cody has volunteered at Ft. Jackson with the American Red Cross for a number of years and was presented his award by Brigadier General Bryan Roberts at a special ceremony and reception Friday, April 20. He was selected from over twenty nominations by various service organizations at Fort Jackson. 

Brenda Faye Terry, a Junior at Grace Christian School, recently competed in the Interscholastic Equestrian Association’s Zone 4 “Varsity Open Equitation on the Flat” and won in her category. As one of the top four competitors, Brenda Faye will be going to the IEA national competition in Syracuse, New York, April 20-22, where she will compete against approximately forty other riders from across the nation. 

One of the difficulties of this competition is that she will not be competing with her own horse. The competition requires riders to draw the horse that they ride, adding an unfamiliar element to the demonstration of her skills.
