I remember being encouraged and supported, while also challenged to think critically and apply what I was learning to life situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What was one of your favorite memories\/moments at WHCS?<\/strong><br>Definitely our fifth grade production of the musical \u201cJoseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.\u201d I played Benjamin and to this day can sing every one of those songs word for word!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How did WHCS prepare for your career and\/or high school education?<\/strong><br>What stands out to me the most is the rigor of the English and grammar curriculum in my time at West Hills. Studying in Biblical Academics means that I have had to acquire a few different languages and constantly work on my skills as a writer. The foundation that West Hills gave me at a young age has made it much easier as an adult to acquire these languages and has given me a noticeable leg up in my writing proficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How did WHCS cultivate community?<\/strong><br>During the years I was at West Hills, my class faced a couple of pretty difficult tragedies in our lives. In each of these circumstances, I will never forget how our teachers created space for us to process as kids and pray together as a class. This shepherding and value on relationship created deep friendships among my classmates, and many of us (both classmates and teachers!) are still involved in each other\u2019s lives today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Class of 2008, Rolling Hills Community Church<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":4146,"template":"","class_list":["post-4003","portrait-graduate","type-portrait-graduate","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/whcs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portrait-graduate\/4003","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/whcs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/portrait-graduate"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/whcs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/portrait-graduate"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/whcs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4146"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/whcs.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4003"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
