It’s funny. When I was a high school student at A.M., I had no idea that I was building a treasure chest of memories. I didn’t even realize my treasure chest was so full until I attended the reunion, and it literally came to life as friend after friend, tale after tale, poured out into the gymnasium. While a storybook student at A.M., my world revolved around Mary Kay suntan pancake makeup, baby blue eye shadow, and at which lunch table I would sit. Life was simple, and life was good. I wondered to myself as I glanced around the gymnasium at dancing/jiggling middle-aged ladies, “When did we blossom into a confident, creative, joyful, trustworthy generation of women?” We all had different timeframes of “when” this happened in our lives, but we all agreed that the “why and how” were without question – our families’ love and their encouragement to attend a caring, Christian high school where the devoted staff and teachers would faithfully train us up in the ways we should go so that when we were old, we would not depart from it. (Proverbs 22:6) Thanks, A.M.
