WEBVTT

00:00:12.500 --> 00:00:15.000
so doctor

00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:17.500
record a principal at Red Hill Lutheran School in Tustin

00:00:17.500 --> 00:00:20.000
and so proud to be principal they're one of the things

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:22.500
that makes Red Hill Lutheran unique

00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:25.000
and special is our teachers

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:27.500
the heart of any school as you know our

00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:30.000
teachers what I look for in teachers

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:32.500
is just a love for the Lord a deep love for the Lord that

00:00:32.500 --> 00:00:35.000
they can share with the children when

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:37.500
we come together especially on Wednesdays for

00:00:37.500 --> 00:00:40.000
Chapel you can really see that radiating to the

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:42.500
children and to the teachers that love

00:00:42.500 --> 00:00:45.000
for the Lord and and just

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.500
meaning of his light and sharing that

00:00:47.500 --> 00:00:50.000
word with everyone else around us I

00:00:50.000 --> 00:00:52.500
think the most dedicated

00:00:52.500 --> 00:00:55.000
and loving teachers

00:00:55.000 --> 00:00:57.500
that we have here currently I

00:00:57.500 --> 00:01:00.000
think that they all work very very

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:02.500
hard to create curriculum

00:01:02.500 --> 00:01:05.000
that is both individualized each student

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:07.500
as well as the

00:01:07.500 --> 00:01:10.000
whole class as a whole great

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.500
performing

00:01:12.500 --> 00:01:15.000
arts department that includes theater

00:01:15.000 --> 00:01:17.500
choir concert band Orchestra contemporary

00:01:17.500 --> 00:01:20.000
praise music handbells You Name It We

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:22.500
have we covered all the bases

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.500
such a great community and I really like the music

00:01:27.500 --> 00:01:30.000
program here when my dad died

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.500
read whole had a lot of empathy

00:01:32.500 --> 00:01:35.000
for me and like and like has lots of support

00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.500
for me and so like that was like when I

00:01:37.500 --> 00:01:40.000
like the main like Mom and so I had to you know I

00:01:40.000 --> 00:01:42.500
love the fact that we experience

00:01:42.500 --> 00:01:45.000
what a jointer

00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:47.500
so that's why I intentionally scheduled for us during

00:01:47.500 --> 00:01:50.000
the school day because I want respect

00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:52.500
the family's to be able to sense

00:01:52.500 --> 00:01:55.000
whether or not the students are engaged in their learning

00:01:55.000 --> 00:01:57.500
if they're smiling if they're participating

00:01:57.500 --> 00:02:00.000
too and so we get

00:02:00.000 --> 00:02:02.500
feedback to better sense of community around

00:02:02.500 --> 00:02:05.000
here as well so I love to encourage anything

00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:07.500
that supports that tooth productivity

00:02:12.500 --> 00:02:15.000
is that way they were like Specialties such as

00:02:15.000 --> 00:02:17.500
let me go to stem or when we go to mrs. occupancies

00:02:17.500 --> 00:02:20.000
room school just you know is an

00:02:20.000 --> 00:02:22.500
amazing place where to be at the reason I

00:02:22.500 --> 00:02:25.000
love being here is because not only do I get to talk about our

00:02:25.000 --> 00:02:27.500
faith but I get to talk about science to all our kids

00:02:27.500 --> 00:02:30.000
here at the lab what are the things that we love to do

00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.500
is we love to make mistakes we love to learn we love

00:02:32.500 --> 00:02:35.000
to pray we do so many different things for

00:02:35.000 --> 00:02:37.500
coming to a school where they're surrounded by people that love

00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:40.000
them and people that know them people that see

00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:42.500
them and so you know my girls walk

00:02:42.500 --> 00:02:45.000
on campus are there surrounded by

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:47.500
play surrounded by teachers and friends and staff

00:02:47.500 --> 00:02:50.000
members that just know them and love them and

00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:52.500
it's invaluable to me I mean I

00:02:52.500 --> 00:02:55.000
can't get that anywhere else in so you

00:02:55.000 --> 00:02:57.500
can just send a feeling of

00:02:57.500 --> 00:03:00.000
community and just

00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:02.500
Fellowship every morning when I come in

00:03:02.500 --> 00:03:05.000
one of the first things I do after I

00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:07.500
set my things down is I will place

00:03:07.500 --> 00:03:10.000
my hand on each of my students desk

00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:12.500
and I pray for them I pray

00:03:12.500 --> 00:03:15.000
for the day I pray that they would

00:03:15.000 --> 00:03:17.500
God to work through them and that

00:03:17.500 --> 00:03:20.000
they would shine God's light I pray that they

00:03:20.000 --> 00:03:22.500
would glorify God in all that they do

00:03:22.500 --> 00:03:25.000
and as a teacher that

00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:27.500
that's important to me that I get to be able to

00:03:27.500 --> 00:03:30.000
pray for my students every morning and every day

00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.500
I just find that it's an honor to be able

00:03:32.500 --> 00:03:35.000
to do that for my my students and my

00:03:35.000 --> 00:03:37.500
my family is here but I get to have each and

00:03:37.500 --> 00:03:40.000
every day I've been going to Red Hill Lutheran since

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.500
kindergarten and my favorite memory

00:03:42.500 --> 00:03:45.000
is having lunch with my friend

00:03:45.000 --> 00:03:47.500
bad seed for the rest he's

00:03:47.500 --> 00:03:50.000
I made a lot

00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:52.500
of good friends and I probably have for a long time it's

00:03:52.500 --> 00:03:55.000
definitely a hard curriculum to so that it's 150

00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:57.500
the

00:03:57.500 --> 00:04:00.000
principle is very nice

00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:02.500
and he always follow the fruits of the spirit I love

00:04:02.500 --> 00:04:05.000
his energy when it gets up and

00:04:05.000 --> 00:04:07.500
chapel and he talked to her all the preaching

00:04:07.500 --> 00:04:10.000
about

00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:12.500
is being

00:04:12.500 --> 00:04:15.000
able to leave chapel and having in the

00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.500
Sanctuary all the kids all of

00:04:17.500 --> 00:04:20.000
the classes and being able to talk to them about Jesus

00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.500
about life watching

00:04:22.500 --> 00:04:25.000
him sing jump up and down literally

00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:27.500
dance in the aisles moving

00:04:27.500 --> 00:04:30.000
all through the sanctuary

00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.500
statement that is just

00:04:32.500 --> 00:04:35.000
so much a part of their hearts

00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.500
and their lives as they come

00:04:37.500 --> 00:04:40.000
to the school and

00:04:42.500 --> 00:04:45.000
Holly all the teachers and students are all

00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.500
super supportive and Sykes a nice but

00:04:47.500 --> 00:04:50.000
to be able to greet people at by walking them

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.500
with their first name whether that's a crosswalk or when

00:04:52.500 --> 00:04:55.000
they come through to sign their child into preschool we

00:04:55.000 --> 00:04:57.500
just think that that's part of our connection

00:04:57.500 --> 00:05:00.000
and our families deserve

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.500
that is coming to our school and

00:05:02.500 --> 00:05:05.000
that also makes her students feel as though they're loved

00:05:05.000 --> 00:05:07.500
and they're worth acknowledging and

00:05:07.500 --> 00:05:10.000
I and so that's pretty

00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:12.500
exciting part I love quest walkthrough for that very

00:05:12.500 --> 00:05:15.000
reason to our teachers not

00:05:15.000 --> 00:05:17.500
play get to know students during the school day but they

00:05:17.500 --> 00:05:20.000
go out to their events they go to soccer

00:05:20.000 --> 00:05:22.500
games they go to Advanced outside

00:05:22.500 --> 00:05:25.000
of the school and they pour

00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:27.500
their heart and soul into that student partnership

00:05:27.500 --> 00:05:30.000
that the teacher forms with the parent

00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:32.500
is at the heart of Christian education in my favorite

00:05:32.500 --> 00:05:35.000
part of my day is actually just putting a smile on

00:05:35.000 --> 00:05:37.500
the kids and let him know how incredible they are because

00:05:37.500 --> 00:05:40.000
God made us to be smart and creative

00:05:40.000 --> 00:05:42.500
stop by and

00:05:42.500 --> 00:05:45.000
say hi will see you later bye see you
