Empowering Every Learner: The Role of Special Education in Christian Schools Part One

“Differentiation in the classroom is not just about individualizing education; it's about truly understanding each student's strengths and weaknesses and tailoring our approaches to meet them where they are.”  —Dr. Lisa Joyner
 
Part One 
Supporting students with special needs is often an area that is lacking in Christian school environments — whether it be for lack of space or funding, or most often, for lack of credentialed personnel and a solid, research-based plan.  On this episode of the Teacher Edition podcast, Jenny Copeland and special education expert Dr. Lisa Joyner talk about the ways Christian schools can come alongside and support students who are struggling — including identifying these students, knowing legal expectations, and finding personnel to support these types of programs. 
 
Lisa answers these important questions:
What is special education?
How can Christian schools support students with special needs?
Does including students with disabilities hold back other students in the class?
 
Jenny and Lisa lay the foundation of the intersection of Christian education and special education. In the next episode, they will talk about identifying students who are struggling, training for teachers, and how schools can navigate and improve their hospitality with the students and their families. Every day in the classroom is YOUR day to impact and inspire through God’s power and grace working in you.
 
Go do what God has called you to do!

Thinking - and Rethinking - Athletics in Christian Schools Part One

The word “athletics” can evoke a range of responses from individuals and schools alike. For some, it’s an integral part of their identity — they live and breathe sports. For others, it’s hardly a consideration. Athletics can be divisive, controversial, and at times, imbalanced. Yet, few things can rally loyalty, unity, school spirit, and enthusiasm like an athletic program. While committing to athletics brings rewards and growth opportunities, finding a balance is important.  How can schools ensure that athletics support their overall mission rather than overshadow it?  These are significant questions that Christian schools wrestle with daily. 
 
In this episode of the Teacher Edition podcast, Jenny Copeland discusses these topics with Brian Trull, the administrator of athletics and facilities at Wilson Christian Academy in Wilson, North Carolina. He has over 25 years of experience in education, and in his roles as JV and varsity girls’ basketball coach, Brian has led his team to win the NCCSA State Championship eight times.  
 
Topics Covered: 
The impact of athletics on school spirit, loyalty, and unity
Balancing athletics with the mission of the school
Using sports as a platform for growth and demonstrating biblical principles

The role of coaches in incorporating biblical principles into their coaching philosophy
Parental involvement and cultivating support for a biblical worldview culture.

Be sure to join us for part two of this conversation as we continue our discussion with Brian Trull, where we’ll explore topics like travel ball, other leagues, and ministry opportunities within athletics.

In this episode, Jenny Copeland and Brian Trull tackle the big questions surrounding the role of sports in Christian education. From balancing school missions with athletic programs to fostering character and biblical principles, this episode provides valuable perspectives for educators, coaches, and parents alike.

It’s More than a Logo: The Power of Branding for a Christian School

“Branding is more than just a logo.” — Christin O’Bryan 
 
We have all heard the saying, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” but let’s be honest; first impressions matter. We pick up a book and immediately start judging the contents by what we see. Whether it’s a book, a house, or a Christian school, what we see impacts how we perceive and interact with it. On this episode of the Teacher Edition podcast, Jenny Copeland talks with brand specialist Christin O’Bryan about branding, marketing, and design for Christian schools. This episode is for you whether you are an educator or a school administrator.  
 
Questions answered on this episode: 
What is “branding”?
What is the impact of branding?
What is the difference between branding, marketing, and sales?
How do schools distinguish themselves with who they are?
 
Every Christian school wants to stand out among others and to be known for their values and mission. Christin gives the listener four key questions to help discover their uniqueness as a Christian school: 
What do we do?
Why do we do it?
Who is it for?
How can we create an experience based on the answers provided above?
 
Christin explains how schools can effectively and consistently market themselves. Effective branding influences how a school communicates its mission and values and in turn, helps create an impact on the students, families, and communities.  
About the Guest
Christin O’Bryan has a heart for Christian education and has worked with educational organizations for 18 years as a creative professional. She has designed and consulted on Christian school branding projects, as well as worked at the university level helping to create and apply branded designs across retail service, events, and fundraising campaigns.

Empowering and Preparing Substitute Teachers for Success through the Substitute University Model with April Sinkhorn

"The foundation of a successful school day often relies on how well our substitute teachers are prepared and supported."— Jenny Copeland 
 
On this episode of the Teacher Edition podcast, we explore some very practical ways to help substitute teachers be prepared, informed, and empowered to lead the classroom successfully. Unfortunately, substitute teachers often have a negative connotation. We have visions of out-of-control classrooms in various less-than-ideal situations. Often, we point to the substitute as the determiner of the failure or success of the classroom; however, we as administrators or teachers are the key to ensuring the classroom runs at normal levels on those days.  
 
Join Jenny and our guest, April Sinkhorn, creator of Substitute University, to discuss several aspects of supporting substitute teachers:
The importance of a comprehensive manual for substitute teachers to refer to
Creating a connection between parents and substitute teachers through social media and accolades
Develop a strategic onboarding process including hour-by-hour schedules and feedback tools
 
Through these insights, April encourages administrators and teachers that investing in the development of substitute teachers can help foster a smoother and more reliable educational experience for students and educators alike. Additionally, they discuss how to find qualified candidates and how to navigate unqualified substitutes while helping them contribute to the school in other areas.  
 
Proper training and support can have a profound impact on the daily operations of a school and the experience of the student body. Substitutes may be on the backburner of many schools, but it doesn’t have to be that way. Substitute University is a very creative and doable model for schools to help prepare substitute teachers. In the words of April (borrowed from Subway), “Be a sub above,” and elevate the approach to substitute teaching while bringing your classrooms to a new level of learning. 
 
Every day in the classroom is YOUR day to impact and inspire through God's power and grace working in you. 
 
Go do what God has called you to do!
“The idea of creating a manual with all necessary information for substitutes is more than just handy—it's empowering. It provides them with the confidence to tackle any situation."— Jenny Copeland
 
"It's incredible how much peace of mind proper training can bring, not just to the substitutes themselves, but also to the regular teachers and the entire school staff."— April Sinkhorn 
 
About the Guest
April grew up in a Christian home and has lived in NC the majority of her life. She attended Christian school Pr-K through 12th grade. She received her undergraduate degree in Elementary Education & post-grad in Educational Leadership from BJU. She just finished her 25th year in Christian Education!

It’s More Than A Model: Foundations of a Solid Biblical Worldview

 
"A worldview is a set of basic beliefs, assumptions, and values that arises from a big story about the world and produces individual and group action, what we call human culture." - Renton Rathbun
 
In a quick-fix culture, everything is designed for speed- fast food, speedy checkout lanes, next-day deliveries, high-speed internet, and even listening to podcasts at 1.5x speed.  We may be accustomed to fast fixes and quick models, but how do we approach biblical worldview shaping in Christian schools?  Is a 3-step model or an easy-to-remember acrostic enough?
 
When it comes to establishing and maintaining a Biblical worldview at your school, how do you effectively pass this along to your students? Is there a simple model to adopt? Will that guarantee results - or are there other vital elements to “doing it right” when it comes to biblical worldview shaping?  These are some questions Jenny Copeland and Renton Rathbun, a classroom teacher for over two decades, will answer today.  
 
Important topics discussed in this episode:
What does worldview mean?
What is a biblical worldview? 
What doctrines need to be in place with Christian schools?
What are the basic three essential beliefs? 
 
It’s not all about this model or that 3 step process for success. It is about aligning to a doctrinal standard.  We need this now more than ever in our Christian schools.  
We as educators are approaching a new school year, a new group of students, and a new opportunity to impact our students' lives. With establishing a biblical worldview, we can create an impact on not just the students but the community and even the world. Every day in the classroom is YOUR day to impact and inspire through God's power and His grace working in you. 
 
Go do what God has called you to do!
 
“Biblical worldview should start with God, not us. This isn't our world in which God comes in and gives us instruction, but rather this is God's world.” - Renton Rathbun
 
About Renton Rathbun
Renton Rathbun is committed to developing a biblical worldview in faculty, staff, and students which begins in the heart, is refined by the mind, and leads to service for others.  Renton currently serves as a national speaker for BJU Press and as the director of the Center for Biblical Worldview at BJU.  Renton holds a degree in English education, master’s degrees in speech, writing, philosophy, and theology, and a PhD in apologetics.  He has been a college professor for over twenty years teaching in both public and Christian colleges and universities.  Renton and his wife, April, have three children.
