In this May 9, 2025 episode of Coffee with the Superintendent, we examine how God's redemptive design meets us in the most unexpected places—whether in the scar of a burn, the rhythm of school life, or the structure of professional growth. In The Holy Spirit's Water, we explore Leviticus 13:18–28 and how even boils and burns were used in Mosaic Law to teach discernment, holiness, and dependence on the priesthood—ultimately pointing to Jesus, the Great Physician. In The Grind, we celebrate preschooler Myla’s birthday and mark the final curtain call for our Willy Wonka production. In The Add-Ins, we highlight how BBA evaluates and develops faculty through intentional, rubric-based professional development that ties instructional excellence to student achievement and biblical worldview. It’s an episode about how scars can lead to sanctification, shows can spotlight our students, and strategy can shape our school.
