Annual Report 2014-15
2014–2015 A Year in Reflection Leading, Equipping, Uniting Joel Westa, president and CEO of Christian Schools International Since taking over as the CEO of Christian Schools International five months ago, I have visited every region in Canada, schools on both US coasts, and myriad schools in the central US. I have participated in one of our ELDI cohorts, in one of our CEO Roundtable events, and in several Christian school conventions. I was asked at the November Board of Trustees meeting if I could briefly sum up my observations from those 45+ days of travel. The first observation is an easy one: travel is not as glamorous or comfortable as it used to be, and I am not as young as I used to be! I also noted that no matter where I traveled, my general observation is that customer service is not as important as it used to be. My second and more important observation is that I am heartened by the quality and passion of CSI’s members to accomplish the mission of Christian education. I spoke with board members, teachers, and administrators, all of whom are deeply committed to providing the finest Christcentered education to their students. Customer service does matter to these folks, and they are striving to provide the very best rigorous, faith-forming education for their students. CSI is committed to leading, equipping, and uniting our members with the highest quality leadership education, curriculum, school support, and customer service, because you matter to us! We could not accomplish our mission without your support, and for that, we are deeply grateful! Thank you for your generosity and for your continued prayers! God bless! Joel S. Westa Membership Jeff Blamer, vice president of membership From 2000–2010 Christian Schools International experienced a decline in the number of students in our member schools. Total enrollment dropped from about 102,000 to 90,000 students. The years 2012–2015 have been marked by stability, as total enrollment has grown slightly from 90,000 to 92,000. During the past four years, 92 schools have dropped or have been dropped from membership, and 83 schools have become members of Christian Schools International. One half of the 92 either closed their doors or did not respond to our communications with them.

Accreditation Grows! Bob Van Wieren, accreditation program director 120 Schools Involved in the CSI Accreditation Process 100 80 14 96 11 0 2012 80 20 75 40 108 60 4 With continued growth in the accreditation program, CSI has added six regional coordinators in 2014; these coordinators mentor our schools in the accreditation program and plan school site visits. A commission of CSI administrators oversees the program, makes changes to the standards as needed, approves the work of the school site visit teams, and approves the reports that schools must submit annually. The accreditation cycle includes a self-study and a site visit every five years. 2013 2014 2015 Total Number of Schools Number of New Schools Beacon Christian First Graders Learn Giving “We don’t think that’s fair!” Such was the reaction of first grade students at Beacon Christian School when they learned about the many families in St. Catharines, Ontario, who can’t afford to live in a house. Determined to help out, the students worked with Habitat for Humanity—a Christian housing ministry that seeks to build affordable homes for those families. For the first grade teacher at Beacon, Wilma Harris, it wasn’t just a matter of raising money for a good cause. She wanted her students to know where their dollars and cents would go. They learned from Habitat for Humanity that a whopping 20,000 nails (five cents each) typically go into building just one average sized house. Her class succeeded in raising enough money to purchase 22,933 nails by doing chores for their families and neighbors. But perhaps the most important part of the class’s efforts was the video they made inviting the community to help. Each student—the nervous, the confident, and the camera shy—spoke in the movie. Some wore plastic hard hats and avoided looking directly at the camera; others talked to viewers with breathless excitement. The video was shown at Smithville Christian High School, where many teenagers were happy to donate. Eventually, the school and the community raised enough money to present Habitat for Humanity a check for $1,146, which will be used to buy the nails needed to construct a home. Ms. Harris’s first graders look forward to seeing pictures of the home as it is built. As the students continue to work for good in their community, Ms. Harris said she’d like to see them do three things along the way: “act justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with God.” Adapted from “Change for Nails at BCS “ by Laura Konyndyk, OACS community journalist and communications assistant, http://www.oacs.org/2015/change-for-nails-at-bcs/ AND IT WAS GOOD Darryl Shelton, curriculum development director Susan Koppendrayer, a member of the CSI team that pulled together And It Was Good: Teaching Science from a Christian Worldview, will be presenting two seminars at the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) National Conference in Nashville, Tennessee. Susan teaches science at Calvin Christian School in Edina, Minnesota, and is employed by Christian Schools International as a science specialist, offering workshops about And It Was Good and about the integration of faith and science. Every year NSTA, the largest association of science teachers in the world, holds many conferences for its 55,000 members to promote excellence and innovation in science education; however, the national conference is by far the biggest and most anticipated. Rachael Heyboer, manager of curriculum product development at CSI, says, “It is an incredible opportunity to have a teacher from one of our member schools lead sessions specific to the private school mission and purpose. Christian Schools International has the potential to highlight our organization and our belief that as Christians we are empowered by our creator to discover, probe, explore, and seek after knowledge in every discipline, including science.” This will also allow CSI to reach out to the many private school teachers that attend the NSTA national conference. Most of the sessions at the conference are led by public figures or representatives from public school districts; to have the option to attend sessions that are presented from a Christian worldview and teaching environment will be an added benefit for private school teachers. Susan’s workshops are titled “Empowering Our Students to Be Citizen Scientists” and “Designing Lessons for the Private School Setting That Implement the NGSS.” Her goal in these workshops is to help teachers in Christian schools integrate faith (Christian worldview) into current science teaching. This is also the goal of And It Was Good, a resource from Christian Schools International that provides sample lessons that seamlessly incorporate Christian principles into science lessons based on the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). And It Was Good is available for grades kindergarten through middle school. The conference takes place April 2016. Said Susan, “God really wants the greater science community to hear about CSI and what we have to offer. I am so thankful to be part of this new CSI venture. I am also thrilled to be able to teach and speak at the NSTA.” We would like to thank you, our faithful donors. Without your support, developing this innovative teacher science resource, And It Was Good, would not have been possible! www.csionline.org/anditwasgood Health Insurance and Pension Howard Van Mersbergen, vice president of employee benefits In 1943, Christian Schools International started the Canadian and US pension plans for our Christian schools to assist in securing the financial futures of thousands of teachers. In the 1960s we began to offer health insurance plans. Our US pension plan remains fully funded and continues to provide an excellent retirement benefit to the employees of the 143 schools that participate in the plan. Our Canadian pension plan continues to make progress toward fully funded status. In August 2012 the funding status of the plan was at 80 percent. The most recent valuation of the plan showed the funding status Expenses at 91 percent. Our Canadian pension plan has 103 schools participating.

Character.org was founded in Washington, DC, in 1993 as the Character Education Partnership to support character education efforts in public and private schools. Character.org affirms schools where teachers work together as professionals to positively shape the social, emotional, and character development of the young people entrusted to them. Students in these schools feel safe, respected, and connected to those around them, allowing them to thrive academically and socially and to be motivated to give back to their communities. Dick Van Yperen, curriculum and instruction advisor; Mary Faber, middle school vice principal; Jessie Wright, high school teacher; Donna Holly, kindergarten teacher; and Tom Dykhouse, head of school A team of teachers and administrators from Eastern Christian Schools presented on the subject of character education to public and private school educators from across the US at the National Forum on Character Education in Atlanta, Georgia, in October. Their topic for the conference, which was sponsored by Character.org, was “Relevance across the Ages,” which traces the development of character education within Eastern Christian School, beginning at the earliest grades and continuing on until graduation. The presentation marked the completion of the district’s four-year effort to earn the National School of Character designation. The district went through a rigorous application and screening process that reviewed the school’s core values and the ways that character education is embraced and supported. While at the conference, the team from Eastern Christian accepted a banner commemorating the designation as a National School District of Character. The Christian Schools International school community congratulates Eastern Christian on this prestigious award.
