Campion Honors International Students

 On Saturday night, May 21, 2016 at the annual awards program, Campion Academy recognized its 9 international students from 5 different countries (China, Japan, Nepal, South Korea, and Taiwan.)  The international students were reminded, “At Campion Academy, we are a family.  We want to make sure that you know that we consider you a part of our family, and we are so glad that you are with us!”
 
For the past 4 years, I have represented Campion Academy internationally by making 4 separate trips to South Korea and China with the intent of developing relationships with students, parents, and agents from those parts of the world.  As a school we are developing an intentional international program to bring other students from around the world to our campus.  We currently have 2 ELL (English Language Learner) staff members who are developing a strong program to support the international students, most of whom are coming to learn English.
 
In short there are 3 main reasons why we are actively developing this program:
1. An increased enrollment, which helps the financial aspect of the school.
2. An evangelistic effort to bring non Seventh-day Adventist students, and in many cases, non-Christian students, to our campus for 1 to 4 years, where they are daily exposed to Seventh-day Adventist beliefs and worship opportunities.  A number of international students in the past have been baptized and go on to attend Seventh-day Adventist colleges and universities.  This is fulfilling one of the missions of our church and school to “go into all the world … “
3. An opportunity for our U.S. students to learn about other cultures and interact with other students from around the world.
 
On a Campion Academy sponsored trip during the summer of 2015, Campion ELL teacher, Patricia Torres and her husband, Mike, along with Chezney Barry (now current senior) and Gaby Joya (Campion graduate in May 2015) were able to go to China for nearly 3 weeks to experience the Chinese culture first-hand.  While there, they were hosted by Shijiazhuang No. 24 High School, which has expressed interest in becoming a “sister-school” to Campion Academy.  In addition to sightseeing opportunities, they lived, socialized, attended classes and made many friends with the local Chinese students.  Mrs. Torres was also able to teach a number of specialty classes throughout their visit.
 
Chezney loved it and didn’t want to leave, but realized she needed to return to finish high school.  However, Gaby Joya, who had just graduated from Campion a week before leaving for China, liked it so much that she decided to stay and continue her education there!
 
Gaby recently told me, “My experience in China has been life changing.  It has opened my eyes how God has a specific plan for each and every one of us.  I never would have thought I would ever go to China, let alone live and go to school here.  My experience has been a great blessing, and a true testimony.  I believe God has been planning this for a while.  Every little detail was taken care of and I'm truly in awe.  It has now been a year since I came, and my experience has been truly amazing.  I have amazing Chinese parents whom I love and am truly grateful for.  I get to help send students to Christian schools, and I get to learn and experience the Chinese culture.  I believe God has a plan for everyone … we just need to say, yes.”
 
During my recent visit to China in March 2016, I was able to spend 2 days with Gaby and her Adventist host family and saw a spark in her eyes that was truly inspiring.  Gaby has been studying Chinese for this past year and has been recently accepted into a leading business school in Shanghai.  She plans to major in international business.
 
Plans are in the initial stages to send another group of Campion students to China in the summer of 2017 so that they too can be exposed to the same type of experiences that Chezney and Gaby enjoyed and are continuing to experience.  Until then we will continue bringing other cultures to our campus to share with our students.

Fun Labs for Super Physics Week

5/24/2016

0 Comments

 
Physics students finished up the year with Super Physics Week, May 9-13, and a selection of 21 labs--some easy, some fun, and some requiring research and challenging calculation. ​

Mr. Kast says, "Super physics week allows the students to apply what they have learned this year through labs, giving the students the opportunity to explore the principles in a different setting."
​Rubbing your hands on the handles of a Chinese Spouting Bowl creates vibrations in the water. Vibrations on the bowl create waves in the water, causing it to spray into the air.
Picture
Using a machine that sends vibrations to reeds, students had to find what frequencies cause standing waves on reeds.

The Roman arch lab required students to learn how arches are made, then memorize the structure. The students then rebuilt it and researched the origin of the Roman arch.

Real-world Learning in Moab, Utah

5/17/2016

“It was a blast!” says Campion Academy sophomore Janeline Kindangen after returning from a 5-day trip to Moab, Utah. She and the rest of the sophomore class traveled with biology teacher Cindy Santana on a field trip they’ll never forget.

The annual Moab trip brings all of Mrs. Santana’s classes together: earth science, biology, and world history. Students review the flora and fauna of the Moab desert during the long bus ride. Once there, they chart various plants for identification and then mount, identify, and describe one flowering plant of their choice for the Campion Herbarium, a collection of plants from the area. “We got to learn about plants, but we got to experience Moab, too,” adds Janeline.

Students view geological formations and learn about the development of arches in Arches National Park, and they see the history of the Ancestral Puebloans as they tour cliff dwellings in Mesa Verde National Park.

Cindy Santana sees this trip as a chance to “connect the classroom learning with the real world. The textbook learning shouldn’t happen in a vacuum,” she says. In Moab, students achieved exactly that as they experienced God’s creation first hand.
 
After several days of camping, hiking, river rafting, and cliff jumping, the sophomores bonded with their class and had an unforgettable learning experience. Sophomore Damarys Nieto says cliff jumping in Mill Creek was her favorite part of the trip. She also liked hiking in Arches National Park. “It was a hard hike to see Delicate Arch, but it was worth it because the arch was really pretty,” she says.
 
Students from previous Moab trips still come back to Mrs. Santana and tell her they can never look at rocks and flowers the same way again. That’s what real-world learning does!

Wildfire Ends with Promise of Heaven

5/14/2016

0 Comments

 
Picture
This special night of the last evening of Campion Academy's student week of prayer started off powerfully. Six students decided to give their life to Jesus by being either baptized for the first time or recommitting their life by getting re-baptized. Junior Cassie Carr then spoke a powerful message about heaven--a topic she's passionate about. She answered many questions such as "What will we look like in heaven?" and "Is there room for us all?" She told us about how she had been on a few mission trips and would always present this subject. Cassie told us, "Telling people about heaven is my favorite thing to do. I can't wait to see the  people I told about heaven actually be there." This was a great topic to end the week of meetings.  

Wildfire 2016 was a huge success. We had 15 students over the course of the week either be baptized or plan on being baptized in the very near future. Senior Ruth Garcia commented, "It was such a blessing seeing my very own classmates give their lives to Christ. Wildfire has definitely opened my eyes to seeing Jesus in a way that I never thought I would." I would completely agree with this. As a four-year senior, I have enjoyed this week of prayer the most out of all my years. It was incredible to see how just high school kids could make such a difference and be so passionate about their faith and what they believe in. Another aspect that made this week of prayer special was it wasn't only for students. It was open to the church and community. It was really cool to see how the crowd grew through the week to where on Friday night we needed to set up chairs outside the entrance of the tent just so everybody could have a seat. 

Pastor Nestor Soriano pointed out another way that we could see God working--the weather. Earlier in the week it would rain in the afternoon but clear up by evening. The rain never interrupted our outdoor tent meetings. It just showed us how God is in control and takes care of us if we are doing His will.

Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

5/13/2016

1 Comment

 
“God works with people, and He molds people, and He fixes people.” Last night Chezney Barry, a senior, shared a message concerning health. She started off by pointing out that sometimes we think that being healthy is on a checklist of requirements to get to heaven. It’s not. God encourages us to be healthy because “we are God’s masterpiece,” and he wants the best for us.

“How we take care of our body,” Chezney says, “relates directly to how we think.” God wants us to have clear minds because He loves us. He isn’t trying to take the fun out of eating or put us behind bars by restricting us.

Chezney introduced the second part of her sermon by pointing to Ephesians 5:18, which states, “Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit.” She told us of how, when she was six, she was in a car accident involving her mom and brother when her mom was under the influence. Addiction is something we link to drinking and drugs, but addiction to things like sugar and caffeine are just as real.

She finished by reminding us that God looks at all sin equally, and addiction to unhealthy food is something we need to own up to and take charge of.

For someone who was joking around earlier that evening about how unhealthy I was, Chezney’s sermon put me to shame. Health isn’t something that we should just be obligated to watch. It’s a gift of will. I’m young, so I can’t see the effects now, but I know they’ll come around. I’m glad that God gave Chezney the words to take off my rose-tinted glasses and view my health in a new light.

Wildfire Series Answers "Is God on Our Side?"

5/12/2016

0 Comments

Wednesday evening the message entitled “Judgement—Is God on your side?” was presented by junior Rolando Herrera.  Judgement is often considered a scary topic, but Rolando showed us that it doesn't have to be if we accept Jesus and His sacrifice for us.  As we stand before God, our Judge, there is no need to fear because Jesus, our Lawyer, is representing us and has never lost a case.  Rolando read 1 John 2:1, “If anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.”  Everyone sins; it's a part of our nature, and as Rolando said, “Christ died for us knowing we can't crawl out of sin by ourselves.” 
 
Rolando illustrated what happens to us and our sins when we accept Jesus’ gift of His life so that we can spend eternity with Him.  Hunter Odenthal helped Rolando hold up 3 flasks of liquid.  The first, labeled “me,” was clear liquid.  The second, labeled “sin,” was bright red liquid.  Finally, the last flask, labeled “Jesus,” was also clear liquid.  Rolando explained that as we are affected by sin, we become dirty and sinful beings.  He demonstrated this by pouring some of the red liquid into the flask labeled “me.” But as Rolando said, when we accept Jesus and His forgiveness, He cleanses us and erases our sins.  This was shown by pouring the liquid labeled “Jesus” into both “sin” and “me.”  When he did this, all red liquid turned pure and clear. 
 
As Rolando exclaimed, “The time to choose Jesus is now!”  Jesus is waiting, knocking at the door of your heart.  The best Lawyer in all the universe wants to represent you in the judgement, all you have to do is accept Jesus.

Halfway through Wildfire, Students Still Pumped for Revival

5/11/2016

0 Comments

 
“[My main concern was] being able to present the message God gave me in a way that was understandable and made sense,” Campion Academy senior Samuel Middlebrooks commented. Speaking in front a group of people can be terrifying at times. Tuesday evening, Sam went under the stage-lights and delivered a message about the Sabbath. He described the days of the week and how each had a partner, except Saturday. 

Sam proceeded to prompt attendees about why the Sabbath was of importance. Cheyenne Martinez, a junior, reflected on Sam’s idea about how the Sabbath is a sign of redemption or deliverance. “One thing that stood out was the verse Mark 2:27, ‘And He said unto them, the Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath.’ We never think of it like that,” she said.

The Sabbath is a great reminder of how “We should trust that everything is in God’s hands,” Sam stated.

Even with the weather against us, rain didn’t stop Sam from delivering the good news. As it began to drizzle, Sam prayed for the Holy Spirit to consume the tent and that at least one person would gain insight of God’s love. Join us tonight, May 11 at 7:00 pm, as Campion junior Rolando Herrera asks and answers, “Is God on my side?”

Seniors Acknowledged for Choice to Join Marine Corps

5/10/2016

Seniors Damian Johansen and Brian Nelson were acknowledged on National Day of Prayer, May 5, for their choice to join the Marine Corps. Retired Army Chaplain (Colonel) Dick Stenbakken interviewed the young men during services held at Mountain View High School in Loveland. Prayers were offered for all those in the military, as well as other groups represented at the gathering.

"I just want to serve my country. That's what I've always wanted to do," said Damian. Brian explained, "My grandfather told me stories of his fun travels and memories, and he talked about how the Marine Corps was the best. So, I wanted to join the Marine Corps because they're the best. And, when I get older, I want to tell my grandkids the stories of my travels."
 
Both are beginning basic training at Camp Pendleton in San Diego on August 1.

Geography Projects Display Student Knowledge, Teamwork

5/10/2016

The Atomium in Brussels was originally constructed for Expo 58, the 1958 Brussels World's Fair.
Each semester, geography students present projects that display their knowledge of one country--its topography, politics, religion, tourism sites, social issues, and more. A panel of judges evaluates the scale models, eats authentic 4-course meals, and views student videos and maps.

Lindsey Santana, a judge for the seniors' projects last Sunday, May 8, said, "I was immensely impressed with the quality of the models, especially by the students' use of Campion's 3D printer and CNC machine. The food was also impressive. The baklava and stuffed tofu were standouts!" The countries presented this week were Nepal, Israel, and Indonesia.

Geography teacher Nate Marin collaborated with librarian Lindsey Santana to help students access information about the countries. "From the infographics to the meal menus, everything was improved this year thanks to the collaboration with library," Marin said.
