HOME student feature

At HOME Of Fine Arts we are very blessed to have many talented students in our program. From time to time we will feature a different student or staff member on the blog. Today, we will be featuring one of our 10th grade students, Stephen Stanley. He is the son of Pastor Brandon and Stephanie Stanley, and brother to Caleb. Stephen enjoys taking Keyboard, Pep Band and Concert Choir at HOME. He has a passion and natural talent for music and his desire "is to write worship songs that people will sing in their churches."  He is also the youth worship leader for ONE80 at his church. He also has his own band The Steve Stanley Band.



Recently, Stephen entered the Opening ACT Junior Contest for Celebrate Freedom hosted by 104.7 THE FISH, and has made it as one of the 5 finalist. He has an opportunity not only to sing as an opening act at Celebrate Freedom, but also can receive $3529 towards college from the Path to College 529 Plan!


Take a moment and VOTE FOR STEPHEN this weekend . The winners are announced this Monday. 



At HOME of Fine Arts, we are proud of all of our students, and especially proud of students like Stephen who go that extra mile to share their GOD given talents with others. It is always refreshing to see our students seeking to glorify GOD in all they do.

We WANT you ...

 to clip your BOXTOPS!!!

Don't forget to clip those boxtops off of many items that you may have in your pantry, or fridge. Items like taco shells, pillsbury items, cereal, cereal bars, paper products, and many more items may have box tops. Some items have double boxtops and items from Sam's have as many as 6 boxtops. Look at everything because my daughter recently found a boxtop on her 3 ring binder.

Be sure and clip those boxtops neatly, check the expiration date, and place in a zip bag or envelope...and if you have time count how many you have and write it on your bag. THEN bring them to the HOME desk on Fridays.

We can make money out of this 'trash' and use it to buy needed equipment for our program....so get to clipping folks!
