If you haven't been to the Box family farm, you are missing out! A few weeks ago, the Box family hosted our annual Wacky Wednesday outing to their family farm in Huntsville. It is known by many of the Providence students as "better than Disney Land." The first time we went, my son had so much fun, he wanted to know how much it would cost to go back!

We want to say a special "thank you" from the Providence family for hosting such a wonderful day of swimming, canoeing, fishing, and having fun!

It's the perfect time to do a "spotlight on the Box" family.

The Boxes have been at Providence for 2 1/2 years now. They drive each school day all the way from Huntsville to Rogers to attend Providence, which is about a 1 hour commute each way. What an amazing commitment from their family! We were especially blessed this past year to have Mrs. Box as a second grade teacher.

When asked why they chose Providence for their childrens education, they told us, "At Providence, we enjoy the Christ centered education and atmosphere that our children experience. We also appreciate that it is a place where kids get to be kids."

When asked what the Box children like most about the school, they said, "Our kids enjoy being with their friends at Providence. Sarah Beth’s favorite activity is lunchtime. Sam enjoys P.E., and he also enjoyed the bird feeder project in Mrs. Smith’s fourth grade class this year. Seth likes having time with friends and time with family that the Providence school model allows."

The Box family's favorite Bible verse is Hebrews 12:1-2, “Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith who for the joy set before him, endured the cross."

Next time you see the Boxes, tell them "thank you" for hosting our annual Wacky Wednesday at their family farm.
