Description of your years at UBCS:
Having been a student at Upper Bucks for 10 years, beginning in the 2nd grade, there are many incredible memories. Some of the strongest friendships that I have today are the individuals and classmates that started during my years at UBCS. As I reflect on the faculty, I am appreciative of the significant impact that such teachers as John Roberts and Phil Larson had on my life. Through the good times and even the times of discipline, I understood God’s perfect plan in utilizing the example of these men to help me mature and make proper decisions.
What does Christian Education mean to you?
As a teenager growing up at UBCS and BBC, I did not fully recognize the great value I was receiving in Christian Education. As we become older and hopefully a little wiser, it is much clearer the significant impact that godly teachers and the Christian environment brought to me as a student. As a parent with 4 daughters in UBCS, I depend on the Christian school and strong local church as a fundamental tool that I can use as a support in raising my children for the Lord. God clearly has embraced UBCS, and has upheld its foundation and strengthened its leadership. This is an encouragement to me as an alumnus and as a parent of children in the school. I am truly proud and hold in high regard that I am a graduate of Upper Bucks Christian School.
Life Verse/Quote:
