"First day of Red River Christian Homeschoolers Enrichment Classes! I don't think Noah's ever had so much fun. And I must say - all of you RRCHS parents: you have some FANTASTIC kids! I was with high schoolers, jr. high, pre-k, and in the nursery, and I was pleasantly surprised at the integrity and sociability of every age group! Good job, guys!
. . . Since I taught at all levels in the public school I was kind of expecting something akin to that (better, of course, but somewhat the same tendencies), and it really did blow my mind at how great the kids were. They all were so willing to learn and were so helpful and friendly to each other and to the teachers. I was excited before, but now I'm even more so."

What to do if EC is cancelled

Missing EC due to bad weather is such a disappointment to so many. Here are some things you can do to turn those frowns upside down!

1. Have everyone in your house wear a nametag.

2. Have school, but move to a different room of the house every 50 minutes.

3. Ring a bell when it's time to change classes.

4. Eat lunch on the floor with a blanket. Make sure at least one child cries and another spills their drink so you'll get the full effect.

5. Play "I lost my backpack."

6. At the end of the school day, stack the chairs on top of the kitchen table.

7. Mill around in the driveway talking about what you want to do "after school."

8. If the weather permits, go to Braum's or Taco Casa for a treat!
