Giving Thanks for our New Kindergarten Teacher
We welcome Katie Mellon to the Calvary Family!
Originally from Connecticut, Katie moved to the West Coast to take a break from the long cold winters with feet of snow. After graduating in 2010 from Keene State College in New Hampshire with a degree in Elementary Education and a degree in Music for Elementary teachers, she moved to Boston and worked for three years as an assistant in a 1st and 2nd grade classroom. During her time in Boston, Katie earned her Masters of Education in May 2013 from Lesley University in Curriculum and Instruction, specializing in integrating the arts.
Katie enjoys reading, knitting and running. Traveling is a new interest of hers and she hopes to see more and more of the country as her family and friends begin to spread from the East Coast. She is looking forward to exploring the Bay Area and hopes to adopt a dog soon. She is thrilled and excited about starting her lead teaching career at Calvary!

GraceWorks Will Work!
Calvary has enlisted the help of GraceWorks in its effort to go above and beyond just plain marketing. This company has served over 500 Christian schools, including Redwood Christian, with their marketing and fundraising efforts and has been recognized as a national leader in Christian school marketing.
They will guide Calvary along the path to becoming a healthier, more robust school with their vision and faith-based planning that will result in a 20% increase in enrollment.

A Polling Place to Call Home
We are happy to announce that Calvary is officially a polling location for our community. Not only will this give our neighbors the convenience of voting close to home, but we can use this opportunity to offer them some refreshments and maybe a church postcard or school brochure. ;)

Preschool Expansion
The Lord has blessed us mightily this year, and preschool is busting at the seams. The seams, or in this case, the wall needs to go! The Preschool Expansion has been an idea that has been in the works for a couple years, and this year it will finally start. Whether the preschool class is linked the Kindergarten class or the youth room, ideas are in the works.
Watch for more details to come!
