From My Heart
Community Church and 82nd Street Academics is a place where students learn a lot, get closer to the Lord, and have some fun. I have some examples. One of our students came home from his first day at 82nd Street. His mother asked, "Well, what did you learn today?" The kid replies, "Not enough. They want me to come back tomorrow."
We teach the importance of a good vocabulary. Our 6th grade teacher told the class, "Use a word ten times , and it shall be yours for life." From the back of the room, came a male voice, "Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda, Amanda."
Today we are honoring students and praying for God’s protection and blessing. Currently we have about 360 children enrolled in 82nd Street Academics and 20 more in Sunday Kids Club. I hope that your family is part of the Community Church support for students. New York City is such a wonderful place to live and grow up and yet only 45% of high school students graduate and only 10% of minority students receive a regents diploma. We at the Community Church believe that this is a scandal in the eyes of the Lord and we are changing the odds through 82nd Street Academics.
