Faith Statement: Working at a Christian school such as Orange City Christian is an honor. The support that is received from administration, board members, and fellow staff members is very much appreciated. I have been involved in Christian Education my entire life. It has had a great impact on my life. As a teacher, I hope to have that same positive impact on my students. It is a privilege to work with these students to develop their walk with the Lord.
