thankful

I'm thankful for Jonny's job.

For a christian high school biology teacher, teaching in a public school, Jonny has a GREAT job.  Four of the five science teachers at his school are Christians.  The principal and vice principal are Christians.  Approximately half of the staff at Cascade are Christians.  Its amazing!

Jonny had a meeting last week with one of the other science teachers about some poor test scores they got back from last year.  Apparently, their high school scored low in the evolution section of some standardized test, so the Jonny and Scott were trying to figure out how to go about teaching evolution as Christian teachers.  Previously, they sorta just skipped over it because nobody cared.

Once Jonny made up his notes, he took them to the principal to get his okay on the subject matter.  Jonny included a section on "Alternative views to evolution".  Long story short, the principal feels stirred to be a light for the Lord in their school.  He and the vice principal meet for prayer before school starts.  He doesn't feel right feeding the kids a well accepted lie when they have this pearl of wisdom and truth.  Basically, he gave Jonny a green light to introduce the idea of Intelligent Design.  If you know my husband, you know he is EXCITED about this!  This is was he is passionate about.  So cool!
