The 2012 Seniors and Mayfest group

On June 1, 2013 the 2012-2013 school year came to an end with an emotional graduation ceremony. The Robert Shaffer gymnasium was filled with students, friends and family from various parts of the world. Head of school, Cathy Lovato introduced the boarding school staff and faculty. Graduating senior Richard Huang welcomed the guests with his Salutatorian address. Following Valedictorian, Bella Wang gave a great speech to her fellow classmates. Canyonville Christian Academy’s president, Doug Wead, was our commencement speaker and as usual, gave a motivating speech to our graduates. The senior letters, read by Mrs. Stenberg and Mr. Lovato were emotional and caused a lot of people to cry. Seniors took flowers to their parents or a faculty member as a letter of appreciation was read. This was a great end to a great school year. Congratulations to the class of 2013!!

Canyonville Christian Academy private boarding high school

Private boarding school Canyonville Christian Academy activities department decided to make the game of basketball a little more interesting.

A group of donkeys were invited as special guests allowing our students to ride them while playing a game of basketball. As the donkeys were brought in by their riders, shouts of laughter could be heard in the gymnasium as one of our students Serge Sandrali, laughing himself, tried to “guide” his donkey into center court.

In the end, it was the Varsity boys basketball team, with their competitive edge that ended up winning the night’s game of fun donkey basketball.

The campus was a buzz with preparation for the event. Mrs. Jami Burkhert and other staff were planning and setting up for the banquet. Boys were deciding who they were going to ask, while girls were talking about their beautiful dresses and showed them to teachers and faculty.

Finally, the long awaited day arrived! Although the Oregon weather was not very cooperative and it rained, the students still walked out from in front of the girls’ dorm, Hinn Hall, and had a wonderful time.

All the boys looked handsome and the girls were stunning.

Many pictures were taken. Then, the Juniors and Seniors went with several faculty and staff to Grants Pass to eat a lovely dinner of seafood and prime rib at R-Haus, which is along Rogue River.

Enrollment Climbing

Tags: Boarding School, Canyonville Christian Academy, Christian Private School

Comments: No

Over the past three years, the campus populations of CCA has climbed over 30% to more than 120 students.

Although enrollment is sometimes affected by graduating class size (the class of 2010 had 60 students), the trend is very positive.

Current enrollment is beginning to push against dorm and classroom capacities, but this is a great problem to have.

April Happenings

Comments: No

Spring break flew by for Canyonville Christian Academy students and teachers.

Everyone had a good time going different places and doing different things. This year, there were two separate trips. One large group flew to Los Angeles and enjoyed places like Disneyland, California Adventure, food, shopping, the beach, etc. Another group enjoyed a quieter time at Shelter Cove in Humboldt County, California which was relaxing and enjoying home cooked meals by Mrs. Botsford and Ms. DeLisle and the beautiful black sands beach. They then drove through the California wine country down Hwy. 101 to go to Six Flags theme park near San Francisco, California.

Students are now back and ready for the final two months of school.

We start April off with “Spiritual Emphasis Week” with former teacher Dave Nickodemus as our guest speaker. He was always a favorite teacher for many students and will surely have a lot to say to our students.

dorm life at Canyonville Christian Academy, study time, bible study on Sunday nights, what do girls do?

Private school girls who live in the dorm gather together to learn how to build their character and community with one another.

Every Sunday evening the girls at boarding school Canyonville Christian Academy, meet together with their deans and have a Bible Study. This Bible study addresses many of the questions and problems young girls face at this time in their lives.

Some of the things the Bible study includes are in-depth discussions, personal evaluation quizzes, applicable character building steps and teachings, quality time with leaders, community with one another, affirmation of who they are, and encouragement to become even greater people.

The book we used this week is called “Head to Soul Makeover”, which seeks to teach girls to accept themselves for who they are by showing them their great worth.

Opportunities for international students to learn outside of the classrooms at this private boarding high school are often available.

Each year the students who take Honors Business Math class, go to Harry and David’s in Medford to experience manufacturing, production, packaging, and warehouse procedures, which are multiple chapters on paper come to life. At the end of the factory tour, they return to the retail store to taste samples and purchase some of the products they’ve seen in production during the tour.

It is important for students to apply what they learn in the classroom to real life experiences. This field trip allows the students to begin understanding the importance of business math applications from pay incentives on the packing line to driving a forklift in the warehouse, or even designing special product packaging to the speed of folding the shipping boxes. The overall experience stimulates the imagination and encourages new possibilities for the future of these business math students.

Spring break is in the air!

The weather is warming up with a lot more sunny days here in Oregon. Track season has started here at this boarding school and these high school students are getting into competitive condition every day after school. Tennis players are also working hard on the tennis courts to see how far they can make it this season.

For spring break, many of our students are flying to Los Angeles to go to Disney Land, California Adventure, the beach and other area attractions. I’m sure they will go to a mall or two for some serious shopping!
