🌸✨ Daughters of the King – 5th & 6th Grade Girls’ Devotional Group ✨🌸
As this school year comes to a close, we are so thankful for every moment we shared together in Daughters of the King 💕 From laughter and snacks, to worship, prayer, and growing in God’s Word, we pray our time together was fruitful and planted seeds that will continue to grow in each girl’s heart. 🌱📖
Girls, never forget who you are in Jesus:
👑 Chosen
💖 Loved
🕊️ Strong
✨ Fearfully and wonderfully made
As summer begins, we pray for safety, joy, rest, and opportunities to keep leaning on Jesus in every season. Whether you’re with friends, family, at camp, or relaxing at home, remember that your identity is found in Christ alone. He goes before you, walks beside you, and loves you endlessly. 🤍
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!” — 1 John 3:1

Anxious: Fighting Anxiety with the Word of God
💗 Ice Cream sundae party for our final meeting together 💗
📖 Take-aways from our study:
💕 “Being anxious isn’t a sign of weakness.”

✝️ “No matter how many mistakes we have made, God will always be with us.”
🌷 Final thought from the author, ✨Scarlet Hiltibidal✨:
“Cling to His Word. Cling to this thrilling hope. Cling to others who are held together by Him and rejoice with me that we are loved, that we are free, and that we are safe in all the ways that matter most, and that one day we’ll be safe forever.”
💐 So proud of these girls and the way they’ve grown in faith, courage, and truth this year.
💖 God is with you. You are deeply loved. Never forget whose daughter you are. 👑

Jack H. Achs, Lieutenant Colonel of the U.S. Army, visited the 5th-grade students at Jordan Catholic School to present “Respecting Our Flag.” Students learned about the history of the American flag, what it symbolizes, and even had the opportunity to learn how to properly fold it. It was a meaningful and hands-on experience that helped students gain a deeper appreciation for our nation’s flag and the respect it represents. Thank you Colonel Achs for your service!

A huge round of applause to all our Junior High scientists for an incredible showing at this year’s Science Fair! The creativity and hard work on display were truly inspiring.
We want to extend a major thank you to the parents, teachers, and students who attended. Your support and curiosity mean the world to these young researchers!

Our 6th graders in Mr. Baresel’s class have been traveling across the globe—without even leaving their desks!
To dive deeper into their unit in South Asia, students explored the history and architectural beauty of the Taj Mahal. But they didn't just read about it; they became artists themselves. Using the traditional technique of Indian Batik, students designed and created stunning vibrant representations of this iconic landmark. Batik is an ancient "wax-resist" dyeing technique used to create intricate patterns and designs on fabric (usually cotton or silk).

The students in Mr. Baresel's 8th-grade History class have been channeling the 1940s! They recently stepped into the shoes of wartime illustrators to create authentic World War II propaganda posters, bringing history to life.
From stirring calls to join the Army, to vibrant tributes encouraging citizens to enter the workforce, these projects capture the spirit of the era. Each poster highlights the determination of the home front as they worked to support the Allies and smash the Axis powers!
