Students loved learning about light, sound, and waves in this fantastic hands on science demonstration from a professor with the Department of Physics at Illinois State!
Here's a sample of some of the Bible verses students memorized and presented at our recent Recitation Night.
What a blessing to help Christian students store up precious Scripture, which they will faithfully remember and use as a testament to God's Glory. 📜
Last week we had a wonderful evening of poetry and scripture at our Spring Recitation Night! Thanks to all who joined us and witnessed the fruits of our students' hard labor and practice.
What a great way to finish out the school year!

🚨Adorable fluffy cuteness alert! Our fuzzy friends finally arrived!🐥
Students were overjoyed when they discovered the eggs they patiently waited for four weeks finally hatched. What a blessing to enjoy these little chicks from the U of I Extension-Livingston, McLean, Woodford Counties!
🌱 Things are growing at White Horse!
Students explored the glories of Christ's creation in our science unit, observing how plants develop, and even watching the miracle of life begin with our chicken eggs 🐔.
🐣 Baby chicks aren't the only thing we are hatching though; did you hear we are adding a 6th and 7th grade next year? There is still time to enroll in K-7 for next school year!

🚨Did you know Gen-Z is the first generation in modern history to score lower on cognitive abilities than the previous generation?
The culprit?
👩💻 Digital learning technology in schools.
Worldwide studies are now proving the obvious: Once schools widely adopt technology in the classroom, every single student cognitive measurable declines:
👉 Basic Attention
👉 Memory
👉 Literacy
👉 Numeracy
👉 General IQ
Most public and private schools in give laptops to students, which are used daily for learning both in the classroom and at home. Does yours?
At White Horse, we take a "Vow of Digital Poverty":
💻 Students will never use laptops in school.
📱 Cell phones not allowed.
📺 No classroom time for watching movies.
📖 We read real, physical books.
📝 Pencil and Paper only.
If you want a technology-free and classical education for your child, schedule a tour today.

Last month, some of our students enjoyed a performance of "A Year with Frog and Toad" at Illinois Wesleyan University. The timing was perfect, as our first and second graders had just finished reading a collection of Frog and Toad books! Such a blessing to have a plethora of quality cultural and theatrical opportunities here in Bloomington-Normal!
🌸 This Easter weekend we’re celebrating the Life, Death, and Resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
In preparation for Holy Week, our students learned something truly beautiful: reciting the Lord’s Prayer in Latin — the “Pater Noster” (Our Father).
On that first Good Friday, as Christ obediently went to the Cross, He perfectly lived out the words: “Your will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven.”
Watch the full reel, pray along with our students, and let your heart be filled with Easter peace! 🙏✝️
