Educating Young Christians To Impact The World
10 years at the Grove
It has truly been a blessing to see the school 10 years later. We started with 33 boys K-6 grade and now we have more than 100 boys and girls in grades VPK - 12th grade. During the past 10 years we have gone from an all boys school to a school that has girls in grades VPK - 8th grade. We were one of the first schools to use MAP testing and now all schools use it. As for some of the things you might not know about us, we have sent 2 rockets into space with NASA, allowed students in 6 - 11th grade to fly Cessna planes over South Beach, started a drone racing team, won championships in Brain Bowl Competitions, won 2 elementary and 1 middle school basketball championship, 1 flag championship, district bowling champs, competitive golf teams, recognized for doing a great job by the FBI in Washington DC, and recognized for having the 3rd largest academic gains by the governor. Through the years we have seen a lot of students grow into who they were meant to be and some are still growing. This was made possible through our FBI (Fathers Being Involved) mentoring program. We expose kids not only to cutting edge curriculum, but also life skills that they need such as financial literacy, home and apartment buying, how to do basic car and home maintenance, and more. My goal when I started this school was to leave my mark on someone's life in hopes they live a better life than I did and ultimately leave their mark on someone else's life by making it better. These 10 years have been great and we want the next 10 to be even better.

Parent Talk at the Cafe'
Do you fit the description
Do you ever wonder why your kids don't talk to you? Do you ever wonder why they will open up to a stranger and not the person that is feeding, clothing, and housing them? Well you may need to take a look at yourself. Do you fit the description of a cop when you talk to them or an angry teacher looking for the answer they have no knowledge of. Parents often get mad when their child doesn't meet the expectations they have instead of recognizing the energy the parent is giving. If the parent gives off the energy of the child is going to fail at something generally he or she does. But when you constant show examples of what you want your child to become and offer time and opportunities to grow then they will in their time. We as parents have to do a better job of giving the energy we want our kids to have and not the speech of what they should be. If you pull up in a beat up dodge caravan trying to get a pretty girl's attention she will keep walking but if you pull up in a Ferrari then you don't have to fight so hard to get her attention and that is because now you fit the description of someone she wants to talk to. What I am saying is parents have to lower their temperature and expectations when talking to their kids and offer an understanding ear. If you want your kids to open up you have to ease up
