Students at the Cape Ferrelo Adventist School in Brookings, Ore., though few in number, enjoy many advantages.
The most recent is the arrival of late-model computers, printers, and desks, with a professional, volunteer instructor.
Students not only receive normal keyboarding instruction, they practice creating spreadsheets, making labels, using art/drawing programs, and creating graphs and school reports.
Their biggest project last year was making a photo directory for the Brookings Adventist Church.
Other Benefits
Students also care for a school garden and greenhouse, with vegetable and flower starts to sell as a Home and School project. They also help build birdhouses and planter boxes for sale, and near the end of the school year, they learned about outdoor living on a weekend camping trip.
“The only thing students here are lacking is enough classmates,” says their pastor, Jim Bollin.
“They have good classroom facilities that are paid for, a wonderful campus setting in the country, supportive constituent churches, and an enthusiastic teacher. Those interested in learning more about the School, church, or community, should phone me at (541) 469-3888.” •
