"Fitness, athletics, camping, climbing, diving, farming, caring for animals, and other forms of hard labor expose students to discomfort, fatigue, nature, responsibility, and the limits of their own will. The article does not reject books or classical learning; instead, it argues that intellectual study must be joined to disciplined action. A truly classical education, in this view, should form students who not only understand virtue but can practice it under pressure."

Thank you to Mr. McFadden and Mr. Phelps for giving of their time each week to lead Arrow students in PE class. We'd like to extend a great big thank you to our special guest: Mr. Meeks! May these students grow in mental AND physical fortitude.

Introducing Mrs. Emily Fox, our new fourth grade teacher!

Mrs. Fox has called Henderson, KY home since 2021, when her family followed God’s call for her husband to serve as the youth pastor at Zion Baptist Church, Henderson, KY. She and her husband have been married for eight years and are grateful to be serving in ministry together. Mrs. Fox is actively involved in the life of their church, serving in the women’s ministry and teaching the middle school girls Connect Class.

Having been in the field of education for 11 years, Mrs. Fox has taught in both in-person and virtual settings. Her most recent role has been as an instructional coach, where she supports teachers and helps strengthen classroom instruction. She earned her Bachelor’s degree in 5–9 Education with an emphasis in Math and English from Campbellsville University. She also holds a Master’s degree in Gifted and Talented Education from Western Kentucky University, as well as a Master’s in Supervisor of Instruction and Administration from Campbellsville University.

Mrs. Fox and her husband have a two-year-old daughter, Eden, who attends First Kids. In her free time, she enjoys reading, spending time with family, and trying out new games. Please help us welcome the Fox family into the Arrow family!

Today is the heavenly birthday of our beloved sister, Mrs. Vicki Kloke Smith! 🤍
Mrs. Vicki was an integral part of Arrow’s beginning and served as our first director.

Educators — if Mrs. Vicki was here, she would tell you that classical education is the way you’ve always wanted to teach!

Parents — if Mrs. Vicki was here, she would tell you GOD IS ALWAYS FAITHFUL and that classical education gives you the tools to teach His attributes in every aspect of life, in every field of study, in every assignment.

Grandparents — if Mrs. Vicki was here, she would urge you to empower mothers and fathers as they make sacrifices for their families.

Arrow remains an intergenerational ministry to Christian families in the Henderson-area community. On Mrs. Vicki’s birthday, please consider helping more families attend by giving to the Vicki Kloke Smith Scholarship! Follow this link to give: https://fbchenderson.org/give.
