Our TKA teenagers are amazing!!

We are so thankful to have amazing teenagers working with the sixth graders this week. They have gone on very wet hikes, motivated kids to minimize food waste, facilitated cabin time. They have helped the kids navigate friendship issues, work through homesickness and cheerfully done dining hall clean up and trash pick up! They enjoy their free time and rec. time with the sixth graders. They have been a big blessing to us.

Here's Miss Smith's insight into our counselors:

Our counselors are amazing; I know that I say that every year, but they truly are a huge blessing to us. THANK YOU to all of you who did the extra work to get them ready for this week away. I honestly do not know how we could function without them; and their love, care, understanding, and incredible insight (yes, insight) into ministering to our students is mind-boggling. They truly love our sixth graders, and I love observing the interactions they have with the kids.
