			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<br>Dear Friends,<br>I would like to thank you for the kindness that was bestowed on me both by individuals and collectively as a CTC family. &nbsp;Judging by the amount of gift cards I received i have to think that you ALL gave generously and i am humbled by that. &nbsp;I type with with tears in my eyes that you allowed me to serve your families in the capacity that you did with no skill set to justify that trust. &nbsp;I am and always have been just me. &nbsp;<br>I take away from this experience such an awe at how God equips those he calls to serve and let that be a reminder to all of you who think for one second that you could NOT do what i did. &nbsp;That is a lie from the enemy who would much prefer us to stay hidden and not allow people to see all we are capable of doing when we align ourselves with the will of God. &nbsp;Trust me! &nbsp;i am no big deal by myself.&nbsp;<br>Your kind words that filled not only a card but two pieces of paper as well are treasured reminders that i mattered and i will forever be armed with them when the enemy tries to tell me otherwise. &nbsp;Words matter so much as they bring life or death and yours have brought so much life to me!<br>So my next chapter many of you have asked... i dont know for sure. &nbsp;I have made myself available to Brooke who is taking my place ( you are all going to LOVE her!!!) and as a substitute if needed and i am continuing to serve on the CTC board. &nbsp;So though you will NOT being seeing me every week at school, the cord is not entirely severed as of yet. &nbsp;That has made my "retirement" easier to handle. &nbsp;The rest of time? i have a stack of books waiting for me to start coloring in ( i high light like a crazy person) and a house that could use some attention to details to start with.<br>In closing the words of Philippians 1:3 say it best. &nbsp;I will count is all joy when i remember you. Thank you ... thank you... thank you!!!! &nbsp;<br>Always,<br>Rae&nbsp;<br><br data-cke-eol="1"><br><br>]]></content:encoded>

For the next three weeks our students will be selling Amish Goods such as jams, beef jerky, licorice and Caramel Puffcorn along with several other options. &nbsp;<br>
We thought it would be fun to add a bit of competition&nbsp;among&nbsp;the younger students (3-8th grade) and the older high school students. To see which group sells the most. &nbsp;If you would like to order feel free to email, text or call any one of us in the office and let us know which "team" you would like it to go towards. &nbsp;(Anna would say the younger students for sure!!) &nbsp;<br>
Winners will receive a ticket for an ice cream sundae at lunch Oct 30 or Nov 1. &nbsp; Stay tuned to see who wins.<br>

They began studying the muscles and will continue to peel away the layers until they reach the skeleton.  Arent you glad CTC is here so that this isnt happening on your dining room table?!!<BR/><BR/>In other news: please keep in mind i am nagging your kids about performing in our talent show.  I need to know by the end of month if they are game.  there is a sign up sheet on the bulletin board. Thursday, March 8th will be our talent show and chili dinner.  Rather than sell tickets this year we are going to just charge admission and all proceeds will go towards general expenses that keep us going.<BR/>That being said there has been talk that we may NOT be around next year.  Let me assure you that the board, admins and returning tutors are resolved in our purpose that CTC is still relevant and needed in the home school community and though this year has been lean we are confident that next year will be better.  <br><br>]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[  I have the privledge of serving on the board here at CTC with some amazing people, one of those people is the wise Susan Strelow who served 17 years at CTC and continues to serve as our historian on the board.  <BR/>She keeps us on schedule by reminding us what we should be doing "around this time".  I asked her if i would ever be a "walking calendar" like she is because she just amazes me that even after being away for a couple of years she still remembers. <BR/>When i sat down to write this blog to remind you of important dates we had coming up, i realized "i am a walking calendar!" we all are!  If you are a wife, a home school mom, do anything with sports, prom or church - we have to keep mental calendars! The challenge is to make sure my important dates get on to your mental calendar. <BR/>So please check the calendar on our website we work hard to make sure everything is there and notifiy you of things like yearbook sales (right now for the month of january they are $35) prom ticket sales and dead lines for getting your students enrolled at Tulsa Tech for the 2012-13 school year is Feb 10th.  <BR/>Life is crazy busy but when we join together in the craziness there is always a hand to hold. :o)<br><br>]]></content:encoded>

We also put the Tutor/CTC evaluations in family folders last week. We are beginning to work on the 2012-13 school year.  This is always one of my favorite times as we plan all of the new classes we are going to offer.  <BR/>Lastly, I have a few empty slots on the calendar for lunchroom volunteers. If this is something you could help out in please give me a call.  <BR/> <br><br>]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[  Three weeks is a long time to be "on break"<BR/>For us adults break begins in time for us to start the sprint that is required to get ready for christmas.  <BR/>I took my CTC hat off and enjoyed my family, friends and snuggling on the couch with my furry babies. <BR/>As the day approaches to resume school (TOMORROW)	i feel the internal momentum driving me towards it and the couch has nothing for me (even tho the doggies are still there) and the excitement of seeing the CTC kiddos grows.  New enrollment for 2nd semester classes begins and prom tickets and year books go on sale. Its an exciting time approaching, its a new year!  So heres to classes tomorrow (i will raise my coffee cup) may it be full of smiling faces and excitment for all that the Lord has for us in 2012!!  <br><br>]]></content:encoded>
