Promise Statement<br />
Centered in the shared love of Christ,<br />
Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy is the college-preparatory,<br />
preschool through grade 12 independent school<br />
that inspires and challenges students to discover, hone,<br />
and steward their one-of-a-kind gifts<br />
as they come to know themselves as distinct<br />
and unconditionally loved creations of God.<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong>'s vibrant, multi-denominational family of learners<br />
creates a sheltering—but not sheltered—<br />
environment where, supporting each other and guided<br />
by expert Christian teachers,<br />
students wrestle with increasingly complex,<br />
timeless, essential questions in order<br />
to strengthen their minds and their faith.<br />
Beginning with the end in mind, <strong>CHCA</strong> graduates<br />
young adults fully prepared to succeed in college and beyond;<br />
to engage effectively and lovingly with different cultures,<br />
viewpoints, and ideas; and to achieve significant impact<br />
and influence with discerning wisdom, courageous curiosity,<br />
and resilient Christian faith—<br />
where others pull back, they lean into life.<br />

<strong>CHCA</strong> Head of School<br />
FROM THE<br />
HEAD OF SCHOOL<br />
While <strong>CHCA</strong> has long been synonymous with community, in the last couple of years, people have come to<br />
appreciate the value of this distinct trait in a new way. Last year, we looked at a world struggling with pain and<br />
division and chose to convey our Christian belief that we can come together, look to God, and find inspiration<br />
that He is working to repair, redeem, and restore. We shared our theme “Together as One” with a special focus on<br />
Ephesians 4. This year as we continue to strive for excellence as we learn, lead, and serve, we acknowledge that<br />
community in Christ must be the cornerstone. So, at the introduction of our <strong>2022</strong>-2023 school year, I announced<br />
our decision to continue the “Together as One” theme with a special focus this year on John 17. I have encouraged<br />
all in our community to read and contemplate this passage. As Jesus prays for His disciples as He prepares to leave<br />
the Last Supper, he prays that we would be one and that this unity would demonstrate to the world that God had<br />
indeed sent Jesus and that He loves us in the same way that He loves Jesus. As our primary identity is to be in Christ,<br />
so our most significant community should be the community of believers in Christ. My ultimate prayer is that as<br />
we at <strong>CHCA</strong> who come from different churches and faith traditions, ethnicities, cultures, neighborhoods, and<br />
backgrounds, would be a community that demonstrates the love and grace of God to each other and to everyone<br />
who encounters <strong>CHCA</strong>. May we be a beacon, a “city on a hill” to all who wonder if God is still at work in this broken<br />
world and if there remains any civility or goodwill in our society. May every student and parent, every teacher, staff<br />
member, coach and administrator, experience the transformational love of God as we live out “Together as One.”<br />

A STATEMENT OF THEOLOGICAL<br />
INTEGRATION EXTENDED<br />
By Dr. Dean Nicholas, Head of School<br />
Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy is intentional<br />
about being academically excellent as well as Christ<br />
centered in all we do. In order to do this thoroughly,<br />
we challenge our students to think about all disciplines<br />
and subjects through the lens of a thoughtful Christian<br />
worldview. To achieve this, our students must have<br />
a general understanding of the Bible, Church history,<br />
theology, and Christian spirituality. They must also be<br />
forced to consider connections between these fields of<br />
knowledge and their other academic disciplines. But this<br />
does not happen by accident. The key to this endeavor<br />
is training our faculty in a methodology we refer to as<br />
Theological Integration. Let me explain the reason<br />
for this approach, what it looks like in the classroom,<br />
and how we are raising the level of understanding and<br />
practice for all our teachers.<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> holds to a high view of Scripture. Our first article<br />
in the Statement of Faith reads, “We believe the Bible<br />
to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative<br />
Word of God.” Therefore, the Bible shapes the way we<br />
think about theology and all of life. For this reason, we<br />
study to interpret the Bible so that we can understand<br />
key principles inherent in its teachings (“biblical<br />
principles”). But this is no simple task! Reading<br />
Scripture to mine key principles from a complex book<br />
that was written millennia ago in various cultures and<br />
in numerous languages takes concentrated effort and<br />
careful discernment. And as a multidenominational<br />
school made up of over 160 different churches, there<br />
are many “biblical principles” that we all agree on, but<br />
others are rooted in denominational understandings<br />
and sectarian theological readings. When Presbyterians<br />
and Roman Catholics think about Holy Communion,<br />
they interpret John 6:53 very differently from each<br />
other. Similarly, when Baptists and Pentecostals are<br />
interpreting Acts 2:1-4 and how Christians should<br />
think about speaking in tongues in the church, they will<br />
have very different ways of interpreting the “biblical<br />
principles” for how we should think about this passage<br />
today. Therefore, we are careful to use the language of<br />
“Theological Integration” rather than the older term,<br />
“Biblical Integration” for how we attempt to enrich our<br />
curriculum with Scripture. This alludes to the fact that<br />
in a multidenominational school, certain sectarian or<br />
denominational interpretations of the Bible should not<br />
be given priority by teachers, in their <strong>CHCA</strong> curricula,<br />
based on their personal interpretations or their church’s<br />
views. So as a school, we focus on what all of us as<br />
Christians believe, and we condense that belief into<br />
five key theological “Big Ideas” based on Cornelius<br />
Plantinga’s Engaging God’s World: A Christian Vision of<br />
Faith, Learning, and Living. These “Big Ideas” are the<br />
central components to the overall story of Scripture<br />
that traditional orthodox Christians have believed<br />
throughout history no matter their church tradition or<br />
denomination. Our five theological “Big Ideas” are: 1) all<br />
humans have a longing and hope for something greater;<br />
2) God is Creator; 3) all creation is broken because of<br />
the Fall when sin entered the world; 4) Jesus’ life, death,<br />
and resurrection provide redemption and restoration<br />
to what is broken; and 5) we can be a part of God’s<br />
restoration through our vocation to bring shalom to a<br />
broken world.<br />
So, on a practical level, when we talk about Theological<br />
Integration, it is the process by which our teachers<br />
engage students to think deeply in a “Christ-centered”<br />
way in all areas of study. And we do this by helping<br />
them see the intersections of their learning—be it<br />
social studies, science, math, literature, art, music,<br />
world language, technology—with our theological<br />
“Big Ideas.” When our faculty design curriculum, they<br />
are trained to find ways to prompt our students to<br />
8
consider our theological “Big Ideas” in their lessons and<br />
broader units. Borrowing from an Understanding by<br />
Design curriculum model, we use “essential questions”<br />
to lead to deep thinking and learning. Some of the<br />
characteristics of “essential questions” are that they<br />
are important open-ended questions that we keep<br />
coming back to throughout our lives; they relate to core<br />
ideas and inquiries within an academic field of study;<br />
and they help students to make sense out of complex<br />
ideas and knowledge. So, we ask theological essential<br />
questions, essential questions that incorporate aspects<br />
of our theological “Big Ideas.” In this way, students are<br />
stretched to make connections between theological<br />
understandings and other areas of learning. As<br />
educators, we find ways to do this at age-appropriate<br />
levels to help students grow in their theological thinking<br />
as they develop their other cognitive skills. This requires<br />
students to reflect on their knowledge and synthesize<br />
it with theological understandings. In this way, we<br />
believe that our students grow intellectually and in<br />
faith development in a way that fosters faith formation<br />
without simple indoctrination. We regularly emphasize<br />
that we want students to leave <strong>CHCA</strong> as people who<br />
“own” their faith, not those who merely know how to<br />
recite the “right” answers.<br />
This all might sound a bit abstract, so let me share a few<br />
concrete examples. When I train our teachers, I give an<br />
example of a good social studies theological essential<br />
question: What is history? While simple on the surface,<br />
it is deeply complex. In fact, the more we study history,<br />
the more complex that question becomes. But a fourth<br />
grader studying the history of <strong>CHCA</strong> and an AP U.S.<br />
History student thinking about various methodological<br />
constructs used by modern U.S. historians can talk<br />
about that same question in meaningful ways. What<br />
if we tweaked the question to make it theological? If<br />
we believe in a God who engages in human history,<br />
from the stories of the Old Testament to the most<br />
dramatic example of all—the Incarnation where God<br />
becomes flesh and dwells among us, “How does God<br />
act in history?” A second grader studying the Exodus<br />
might answer that question one way that seems simple<br />
and straightforward, but a more complex variation<br />
of the question in an Upper School AP Government<br />
class might be, “Does God decide the outcome in<br />
democratic elections?” That question challenges a<br />
student to take into account their understandings of<br />
history and government, determinism and free will,<br />
God’s providence, and the effects of a fallen world,<br />
and formulate a response that demonstrates their<br />
best thinking at that moment. And they might answer<br />
it differently a decade later. If you worry that such<br />
thinking feels heavy and complex, remember that ‘ageappropriate’<br />
is a key term in this process. A kindergarten<br />
teacher might ask an appropriate form of the same<br />
question to her students: “How did you see God today?”<br />
That simple variation of the question is preparing<br />
our youngest students to begin thinking about how a<br />
transcendent God is also imminent, always nearby, and<br />
connected to our lives.<br />
It takes work and thinking to prepare lessons and units<br />
that reflect theological integration. And it also takes<br />
work for teachers to learn to think that way themselves.<br />
Consistent theological integration does not happen by<br />
accident! So, over the past two years, I have been working<br />
with the Theological Integration Cohort—a group of 21<br />
educators from all buildings, grade levels, and academic<br />
disciplines. We studied Bible, Theology, Church History,<br />
Faith Formation, and even experienced the backdrop of<br />
our faith as we traveled to the Holy Land. This incredible<br />
group is now going to lead their colleagues in a twoyear<br />
training in theological integration. All of our faculty<br />
and student-facing staff are divided into seven cohort<br />
groups that will study Bible, Theology, Church History,<br />
Faith Formation as well. I will be leading my own cohort<br />
of administrators, helping us think through how we are<br />
thoroughly integrating not just into curriculum but into<br />
all aspects of school life. This two-year program will<br />
become part of all new teacher and staff onboarding<br />
in the future. We believe that for <strong>CHCA</strong> to live out its<br />
mission as a school that prepares young people to learn,<br />
lead, and serve in the world, we need to be even more<br />
intentional in how we train and execute theological<br />
integration throughout all areas of our school. We are<br />
excited for the journey ahead and for all the ways God<br />
will use our efforts!<br />

FINDING PURPOSE<br />
AT <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> offers numerous opportunities for<br />
students to find their purpose and value.<br />
By Kaveri Easwaran ’24<br />
10
MR. JOE METZGER WAS RECENTLY HIRED AS OUR UPPER SCHOOL<br />
STUDENT LIFE DIRECTOR.<br />
I was curious to understand more about this new role, so I sat down for an interview<br />
with Mr. Metzger. The following is an abridged summary of my interview.<br />
KE: PLEASE TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF<br />
AND WHY YOU CAME TO <strong>CHCA</strong>.<br />
JM: I came to <strong>CHCA</strong> because I felt God was calling<br />
me into this space. I was searching for a purpose when<br />
I started out after college. I worked in software sales,<br />
landed a good job, and was doing well. But I didn't feel<br />
fulfilled; I didn't have a sense of purpose in what I did<br />
every day. So, when I was offered this job at <strong>CHCA</strong>, it<br />
was a dream come true. Every day, I have a purpose; I<br />
feel fulfilled with what I am doing, and I know Jesus is in<br />
our midst. At <strong>CHCA</strong>, I love how I get to serve, help, and<br />
impact as many students as possible daily.<br />
KE: WHAT DOES STUDENT LIFE<br />
DIRECTOR MEAN?<br />
JM: Being Student Life Director means helping<br />
students find what they are passionate about. Also,<br />
I want to help students find a group of people with<br />
whom they will connect, enjoy, and have fun. I actually<br />
call my job the “fun director.” In addition, I oversee<br />
student government, club activities, and school spirit.<br />
Ultimately, I try to help each student find the best<br />
place where they’re happy and passionate about what<br />
they’re doing.<br />
KE: WHAT DOES SUCCESS LOOK LIKE,<br />
AND HOW WILL YOU MEASURE IT?<br />
JM: Success in this job means positively impacting<br />
and improving each student's life. One of the ways I<br />
try to impact students’ lives is by helping them find the<br />
organizations and/or groups that best fit their passions<br />
and aspirations. Success is beyond numbers and<br />
analytics. Ultimately, I believe we are successful if we<br />
are doing what Jesus calls us to do.<br />
KE: WHAT ARE SOME CHALLENGES TO<br />
ACHIEVING YOUR VISION?<br />
JM: High school years matter. High school is more than<br />
coursework. High school is about the lessons we learn<br />
about ourselves, figuring out what kind of a person<br />
we want to be, and learning how we want to impact<br />
others and the world. Many students do not yet realize<br />
this, and I want to help them see the big picture. And<br />
unfortunately, some students might not be receptive<br />
to this message. I need to work to overcome this<br />
challenge.<br />
KE: WHAT ARE ONE OR TWO OF YOUR<br />
FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT THE <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
COMMUNITY?<br />
JM: <strong>CHCA</strong> is blessed with a great community of<br />
people. Great things can happen when you have a<br />
Christ-centered community of teachers and parents<br />
who have students’ best interests at heart. I’ve enjoyed<br />
learning how much the teachers care about the kids; it's<br />
unique. Importantly, our students are tremendous. All<br />
these things make my work rewarding and fun.<br />
KE: WHAT DO YOU SEE AS THE GREATEST<br />
OPPORTUNITY FOR ENHANCING UPPER<br />
SCHOOL STUDENT LIFE AT <strong>CHCA</strong>?<br />
JM: I believe the three keys to leading a joyful life are to<br />
have a purpose, feel valued, and be fulfilled. Therefore,<br />
to enhance Upper School student life at <strong>CHCA</strong>, I want<br />
to find a place for each student, where they can find<br />
their purpose and connect with like-minded people.<br />
KE: WHAT IS ONE FUN FACT ABOUT<br />
YOURSELF?<br />
JM: I love pickleball!<br />
In conclusion, I appreciate Mr. Metzger's determination<br />
to help students find their purpose and value. I am<br />
grateful to be a part of the <strong>CHCA</strong> community, which<br />
recognizes the importance of students finding their<br />
purpose so that each of us may grow into the people<br />
God created us to be.<br />

MIND(SET)<br />
OVER MATTER<br />
by Stephen Carter<br />
Director of Entrepreneurship and Sustainability<br />
Open any news story and you’ll be hit with the message—the world<br />
is changing, and fast. Industries are collapsing, new technologies<br />
are forming, and workplaces have evolved at an unimaginable pace.<br />
At the center of this is the question of education:<br />
HOW DO WE PREPARE THE STUDENTS OF TODAY<br />
FOR THE UNCERTAINTIES IN THE WORLD OF TOMORROW?<br />
12
The answer, which reverberates from the innovative programming<br />
at the heart of Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, is clear—we<br />
teach them to think like entrepreneurs.<br />
HOW DO YOU TACKLE OBSTACLES READY TO LEARN NEW<br />
SKILLS?<br />
You embrace a growth mindset.<br />
HOW DO YOU MEET NEW CHALLENGES DAY AFTER DAY<br />
AND PERSEVERE?<br />
You develop grit and determination.<br />
HOW DO YOU TAKE RISKS AND STRETCH YOURSELF?<br />
You redefine failure.<br />
These attributes, coupled with generosity, empathy, and<br />
effective communication, form the core benchmarks of <strong>CHCA</strong>’s<br />
Entrepreneurship and Sustainability program. Starting with<br />
innovative, hands-on education that reaches all learners with<br />
practical training that is far from boring, our program is not only<br />
groundbreaking but also is attracting attention on the national level.<br />
HERE ARE A FEW SNAPSHOTS OF WHAT’S GOING ON:<br />
• We’ve collaborated with local accelerator OCEAN Programs to<br />
create a curriculum which blends entrepreneurial education with<br />
Christ-centered thinking, the result of which is a complete gamechanger<br />
for education.<br />
• We’ve expanded down to Grade 4, with plans to incorporate<br />
curriculum all the way to kindergarten as early as next school<br />
year.<br />
• We have 12 elective courses and a total of five student-run<br />
businesses. Additionally, students can earn the Certificate of<br />
Entrepreneurship as an official designation on their transcript.<br />
• <strong>CHCA</strong> is the first K-12 school in the world to be accepted into the<br />
exclusive collaborative between the Harvard T. H. Chan Public<br />
School of Health and the Culinary Institute of America.<br />
• With the success of our culinary program, we’ve launched evening<br />
cooking classes for adults with plans to add themed classes for<br />
young children.<br />
• In late November, we’re kicking off a series called “Elevating<br />
the Standard.” The first event will highlight “Women in<br />
Entrepreneurship” and will feature a keynote talk as well as a<br />
panel discussion and networking opportunities for both adults<br />
and students.<br />
Whenever parents or alumni come by to visit the school’s beautiful<br />
greenhouse to learn about Eagle Farms, or tour the state-of-theart<br />
teaching kitchen to hear about culinary entrepreneurship, or<br />
see the students hard at work managing the Leaning Eagle Coffee<br />
Bar or the Mini Cup, the response is always the same: “I wish I had<br />
this when I was in school.”<br />
And we agree—but the exciting news is that we have it now, and it<br />
is changing the lives of our students. And in the end, we all benefit;<br />
the more people who seek opportunities and solve problems, who<br />
collaborate and embrace personal growth, who create solutions<br />
and foster ideas, the better.<br />
In short, what this ever-changing world really needs is more people<br />
who think like entrepreneurs. And at <strong>CHCA</strong>, that is how we do school.<br />

UNLEASHING GIFTS<br />
IN OUR<br />
WORLD CLASS PROGRAM<br />
By Mackenzie Carnes ’21<br />
Research has shown that singing or playing instruments helps children to learn on a deeper<br />
level, setting and achieving more complex goals. It is also proven that music lessons for<br />
children help to develop a child’s cognitive skills – broadening their imagination, creativity, and<br />
even helping them to manage their behavior. And if that wasn’t enough, singing and playing<br />
instruments are physical activities which require the development of key muscles, including the<br />
core. In 2016, the University of Southern California’s Brain and Creativity Institute completed<br />
research regarding music and child development. Their data showed music could speed up<br />
brain development in fundamental language development, reading skills, and successful<br />
communication.<br />
At <strong>CHCA</strong>, we are proud to be one of the only schools in Cincinnati to offer a robust private<br />
music lesson program from PK3 through Grade 12. Not only does <strong>CHCA</strong> offer countless<br />

Q&A WITH DR. NICK<br />
Dr. Dean Nicholas is in his second year as Head of School, so we only thought it appropriate to get some early<br />
insights and thoughts about how it’s going and where he sees our school headed. Read on to hear from our leader<br />
affectionately known as Dr. Nick!<br />
IT’S BEEN CLOSE TO 1.5 YEARS NOW AS <strong>CHCA</strong>’S<br />
NEWEST HEAD OF SCHOOL. AS YOU REFLECT<br />
ON THIS TIME, HOW HAS THE JOURNEY BEEN<br />
SO FAR?<br />
It has been a wonderful start, and as I’ve spent time with<br />
a cohort of new heads of schools from across the country,<br />
I have realized that my situation is unique in some ways.<br />
Many new heads talked about the difficulties of learning<br />
a new place, new people, new cultures. For me, this year<br />
starts my 27th year at <strong>CHCA</strong>, so fortunately that “discovery<br />
phase” for a new head was a little different. I’ve actually<br />
been here longer than most people, have lived our history,<br />
and know areas for potential growth and change. Also,<br />
many new heads walk into difficult situations where a<br />
school is in crisis. <strong>CHCA</strong> was just the opposite! Mr. Brunk<br />
took the school to a new level of excellence in his 18 years<br />
of leadership here. I stepped into headship at a school with<br />
academic excellence, innovative programs, outstanding<br />
athletics, fine arts, and robotics programs, a stellar faculty<br />
and staff, good enrollment, and a strong financial situation.<br />
So, this first year and a half has allowed me to see more<br />
of our community, understand at a deeper level how the<br />
school works, and honestly, grow in an appreciation for how<br />
special <strong>CHCA</strong> is. Sometimes we take that for granted.<br />
WHAT IS THE BEST PART ABOUT BEING <strong>CHCA</strong>’S<br />
HEAD OF SCHOOL?<br />
When I was Upper School principal, I often ended my social<br />
media posts with #chcaalumni #thebestpartofmyjob. As an<br />
educator, seeing students you taught, mentored, coached,<br />
directed, took on intersession trips, even disciplined,<br />
grow up into the people God made them to be—that’s<br />
what makes the vocation of educator so powerful and<br />
meaningful. Having those relationships even into the future<br />
is a privilege, seeing those seeds planted grow into trees that<br />
bear fruit! As an Upper School teacher and later principal, I<br />
got to know and watch the development of lots of students.<br />
As Head, that opportunity grows exponentially! Seeing twoyear-olds<br />
in preschool and knowing that I get to do work<br />
that can create the educational paths and opportunities<br />
for those young children to blossom and develop all their<br />
gifts for the good and glory of God is overwhelming and<br />
16
humbling. What has made this place so special to me and<br />
my family are the relationships with colleagues, students,<br />
their parents, and even grandparents. The opportunity for<br />
connections with <strong>CHCA</strong>’s past and present in this role is<br />
enormous and excite me.<br />
WHAT IS <strong>CHCA</strong>’S BIGGEST OPPORTUNITY AHEAD?<br />
That is a wonderfully impossible question to answer. I’d like<br />
to give you a list of about 10 things that I could argue are the<br />
“biggest”! But I will try to encapsulate it in one phrase that<br />
some of us have been talking about lately. How do we grow<br />
into being a “legacy school”? I learned quickly when I moved<br />
here that when people ask you in Cincinnati, “Where did you<br />
go to school?” they mean high school, not college. In a city<br />
with lots of great historic schools, we need to think about<br />
ourselves beyond the great “startup school,” the Cincinnati<br />
“new kid on the block,” in the educational landscape. We<br />
always need to keep our innovative ethos, but we must<br />
build upon our past in ways that solidify our future. We<br />
need to be engaging our alumni at greater levels. It excites<br />
me to have more alumni on staff and see more and more of<br />
them enrolling their children. We need to build our alumni<br />
community even more. We need to continue to recognize<br />
our past, and establish traditions that will allow alumni to<br />
be reminded of their time here and give current (and future<br />
students) a sense of the history and tradition that they are<br />
a part of as a <strong>CHCA</strong> Eagle. And to help sustain that future,<br />
we also need to think about things like endowments and<br />
creative alternative revenue models to strengthen our<br />
financial position even more. Those financial steps help us<br />
increase teacher compensation which allows us to retain<br />
and attract the best and the brightest talent from across the<br />
country.<br />
WHERE DO YOU SEE <strong>CHCA</strong> IN THE NEXT 3 TO<br />
5 YEARS?<br />
Our next five years are going to be exciting. The landscape<br />
of education is changing. We have always been at the<br />
leading edge of Christian education, and that will continue.<br />
At the Upper School level, we’ve continued to increase the<br />
level of individualization of experience. Education should<br />
not be a ‘one size fits all’ experience, and we will continue<br />
to create flexibility in the parameters of a school day, course<br />
options, and modes of learning (traditional, blended, online<br />
options). We need to think about learning at deeper levels<br />
around technology throughout all grades but at the same<br />
time, create outdoor educational opportunities so that our<br />
students learn to unplug and connect to natural spaces,<br />
appreciating and stewarding God’s creation. Also, our<br />
student and family population has grown in diversity of race,<br />
ethnicity, and nationality, but our faculty and staff do not<br />
reflect that same level of diversity. That is an area we will<br />
continue to grow. And finally, because of our Theological<br />
Integration training, five years from now, our ability as<br />
a school to reflect Christ-centeredness throughout the<br />
school, top to bottom, in every class, curricula, and program,<br />
will be unique to any Christian school in the country. We<br />
must always remember that Christ-centeredness holds<br />
together everything that we do here.<br />
YOU’VE BEEN AT <strong>CHCA</strong> FOR OVER 26 YEARS.<br />
WHAT IS YOUR FONDEST MEMORY TO DATE?<br />
Unfair question. I should get one per year. Here is a list of<br />
“fondest” memories:<br />
• My sons graduating (Jake 2020 and Pete 2021)<br />
• Even though it hasn’t happened yet, I believe my son<br />
Abe graduating in May will make the list<br />
• Building an aquaponics system outside of Bethlehem<br />
at Tent of Nations on a Holy Land JTerm, January 2016<br />
• My first Hebrew 3 class in 2000-2001 with Adam<br />
Cool, John Hanto, and Kristen Harmeyer when we<br />
read Jonah, Ruth, Esther, and selected Psalms from<br />
the Hebrew Bible over the course of the year<br />
• My failure in teaching the story of Ehud and Eglon in<br />
2nd Bell in 1996. Those students remember…<br />
• Rushing back from an Israel trip in June, then being<br />
in the dugout for the last inning of our State Baseball<br />
Championship in 2021<br />
• Our theatrical performances of Children of Eden and<br />
Les Misérables<br />
• Seeing the Beak Squad 4028 in St. Louis for the FIRST<br />
Robotics World Championships in their first year as a<br />
team<br />
• Being in the broadcast booth for the first game of the<br />
season this year with Athletic Director Ryan Betscher<br />
’00, 7/8th Grade Football Coach Chad Leland ’00,<br />
and Joe Ashbrook ’00—all members of my first year<br />
freshmen Old and New Covenants course in 1996-<br />
1997 and people I’m now fortunate and honored to<br />
call friends<br />
“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions,<br />
prayers, intercession and thanksgiving<br />
be made for all people— for kings<br />
and all those in authority, that we<br />
may live peaceful and quiet lives in all<br />
godliness and holiness. This is good,<br />
and pleases God our Savior, who<br />
wants all people to be saved and to<br />
come to a knowledge of the truth.”<br />
– 1 Timothy 2:1-4<br />

COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS<br />
DR. D. MICHAEL LINDSAY<br />
President, Taylor University<br />
Lindsay presented all graduates with a gift of<br />
his most recent book, Hinge Moments: Making<br />
the Most of Life’s Transitions, as he encouraged<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> graduates to “be oaks of righteousness”<br />
they are called to be, as they embarked on one<br />
of their biggest transitions yet. He encouraged<br />
them that the Lord calls us to places we may not<br />
expect, and that there we are to be a blessing to<br />
others as we have been blessed. He affirmed<br />
that the place where you are called is where your<br />
heart’s deepest needs meet, and to be obedient<br />
to the Lord and where He may be calling you.<br />

A BIT ABOUT OUR<br />
VAL & SAL<br />
MARCUS<br />
MARCUS ROBERT DALEY<br />
Class of <strong>2022</strong> Valedictorian<br />
University of Notre Dame<br />
Glynn Family Scholar<br />
Marcus joined <strong>CHCA</strong> as a freshman and can undoubtedly say<br />
that being a part of this community and having the privilege<br />
of a <strong>CHCA</strong> education has been one of his greatest blessings.<br />
A National AP Scholar with Distinction, having completed 11<br />
AP courses and 12 AP exams, he received seven awards for<br />
academic excellence over his four years at <strong>CHCA</strong>. He was a<br />
member of both the National Honor Society and JNCL Latin<br />
Honor Society. Marcus earned the Ohio State Seal of Biliteracy<br />
in Latin. Outside the classroom, Marcus was passionate about<br />
service, receiving the President’s Volunteer Service Award all<br />
four years and accumulating over 400 hours during his time at<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong>. Marcus loved working as an SOS leader for Mountain<br />
TOP, <strong>Eagles</strong> Tutoring, and Symmes Volleyball and he served as<br />
an SOS Board Member both junior and senior years. Marcus<br />
is most proud of the independent math tutoring business he<br />
began after his sophomore year. He worked with 25 individual<br />
clients and loved every second of teaching mathematics ranging<br />
from Pre-Algebra to Calculus I. Marcus also cherished his time<br />
as a Peer Advisor, a Student Ambassador, golfer, and member<br />
of the Academic Team. He had amazing times with the <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
Theater Department as a member of Off the Cuff, Director in<br />
The One Act, and playing the role of a southern sugar-daddy<br />
(Abner Dillon) pursuing his unrequited love interest in 42nd<br />
Street. Marcus was named the Rotary Club Student of the<br />
Month and was most honored in being nominated and selected<br />
for the Neyer Foundation Christian Leadership Award for the<br />
Class of <strong>2022</strong>. Marcus is forever reminded he would never be<br />
where he is if it weren’t for the people at <strong>CHCA</strong>. He headed to<br />
the University of Notre Dame this fall to study Mathematics<br />
and Classics as a Glynn Family Scholar, and shares that he’ll<br />
never forget the community that got him to where he is today.<br />

<strong>CHCA</strong> ALUMNI<br />
LEGACY<br />
40
Hang around <strong>CHCA</strong> for any amount of time, and you will see alumni all around – in classrooms<br />
teaching the next generation of eagles, cheering in the stands, working backstage, serving on<br />
the Board, coaching teams, volunteering...the list goes on.<br />
We’ve recently been talking a lot about legacy at <strong>CHCA</strong>. Perhaps it moved to the forefront<br />
when we celebrated our 30 th Anniversary a couple of years ago. Or perhaps it’s because now,<br />
more than any time in <strong>CHCA</strong>’s history, we have more alumni here with their children (and<br />
now graduating their children, such as the Jon Adams ’95 family), and more alumni returning<br />
to work at <strong>CHCA</strong>. As each year passes, those numbers increase. Families are building their<br />
legacies here and we couldn’t be more excited about that!<br />
Many of those families you will see sprinkled throughout this magazine. One such family, you saw featured on the<br />
cover. Jonathan and Jessica (Martin) Snyder ’98 were not only two of the first of over 2,500 students to walk across a<br />
graduation stage at <strong>CHCA</strong>, they have since returned with their four children and have also served in many capacities<br />
– Jonathan on the board for six years, and also as a youth basketball coach, and Jessica on the Parent Teacher<br />
Fellowship (PTF) Board, the newly formed Champions Club, and also as a youth lacrosse coach and a long-term sub<br />
in our Lower School. The list goes on. Legacy.<br />
Merriam Webster defines ‘legacy’ as: something transmitted by or received from an ancestor or predecessor or from<br />
the past. We can think of few things better to receive than the gift of a Christ-centered, academically excellent,<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> education, where students find their place, grow their gifts and talents, and become who God made them to<br />
be—world changers.<br />
Thank you to ALL of our alumni, who continue to grow their legacy through <strong>CHCA</strong>.<br />

LAUREN MYERS<br />
This past summer, Lauren made the brave<br />
decision to travel to Chicago, IL and audition<br />
for the Maverick City Gospel Choir. After<br />
a two-day audition, she received an email<br />
letting her know that she had made the<br />
choir! A month later, they announced that<br />
the choir would be joining Maverick City<br />
Music and Kirk Franklin on their Kingdom<br />
Tour this past summer! This was super<br />
exciting but also a giant leap of faith for<br />
Lauren. The moment she walked on stage<br />
with Maverick City is one that she will never<br />
forget. Her all-time favorite moments of<br />
the show happened when she would look<br />
into the audience and see people with the<br />
biggest smiles on their face, people crying<br />
because they were overwhelmed by the<br />
Spirit, and people praying for the people<br />
around them. She has never felt the power<br />
of the Holy Spirit and His presence so clearly<br />
until these Maverick City shows. It was the<br />
best experience of her life.<br />

HALEY WILLIAMS<br />
Haley started writing music when she was<br />
very young and just recently started posting<br />
some of her songs on her social media.<br />
“Faded” was one song she had posted on<br />
her social media and a family friend, who is<br />
a producer, offered to help her record it. It<br />
was such an amazing experience for Haley.<br />
She loved getting to see how songs work<br />
behind the scenes. “Faded” is one of her<br />
favorite songs she has written and listeners<br />
can find it on all streaming platforms. She<br />
is very thankful to God for the gifts that<br />
He has blessed her with and the incredible<br />
opportunity to record her first song. Be on<br />
the lookout for more from Haley! She is<br />
currently attending Liberty University.

CHARLIE ANDREWS ’14, Owner of Badges Drum Shop<br />
After growing up as a drummer in <strong>CHCA</strong>’s music program I spent time exploring different aspects of the music<br />
industry in college and held some internships that showed me the excitement of running a business and building a<br />
brand. While my major and location bounced around, my love of drums never wavered. I landed a “regular” job right<br />
after college, but a former college internship boss saw my lack of excitement for it and encouraged me to build a<br />
business around my unique knowledge base – drums, drumming, drummers – so I decided to take that leap of faith.<br />
After developing a business plan, securing dealerships, and renovating a historic building in Mason, I opened Badges<br />
Drum Shop just a few months after I graduated in 2018 and never looked back. Here, I’ve had the opportunity to<br />
create an authentic brand around the joy of drumming and work with drummers near and far. Now in the shop’s<br />
“new” historic location at 127 W Main in Mason, I can say without reservation that everything makes sense now – the<br />
feeling of being different, the rigor of <strong>CHCA</strong>’s classes and music program that trained me to do difficult things, and<br />
my college journey that exposed me to people and opportunities that helped me carve out a place in this industry. All<br />
of that came together to make me better at this business, which is my way to make a difference.<br />

An interview with<br />
ALIVIA (JOHNSON) ROSE ’09,<br />
Executive Assistant to Jeff and Dillon Ruby<br />
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN WORKING AT<br />
JEFF RUBY CULINARY ENTERTAINMENT?<br />
In November, it will be 10 years that I have been<br />
working here. I started out working at Carlo & Johnny<br />
as a hostess for some extra money through college and<br />
haven’t left yet.<br />
HOW DID YOU GET THE POSITION OF BEING<br />
THE EXECUTIVE ASSISTANT?<br />
Originally, I was approached by the Director of HR and<br />
joined the office as their Corporate Office Manager.<br />
I’ve worked multiple positions while being at the<br />
company but the way that I was promoted to Executive<br />
Assistant to Jeff Ruby and Dillon Ruby was really neat.<br />
While I was working as the HR & Training Coordinator,<br />
I would fill in for Mr. Ruby’s Assistant when she went<br />
out of town, on vacation, etc. It was shortly thereafter<br />
that Britney Ruby Miller (CEO of Jeff Ruby Culinary<br />
Entertainment) approached me and said that Mr. Ruby<br />
specifically asked if I would become his assistant. It’s<br />
been four years since then and I am genuinely in love<br />
with my job.<br />
WHAT DOES A TYPICAL DAY LOOK LIKE FOR<br />
YOU?<br />
I manage literally every aspect of Mr. Ruby’s life. I work<br />
for him as a personal assistant but also as an executive<br />
assistant. I handle all scheduling for him, manage his<br />
calendar, and coordinate all details for him – along with<br />
attending meetings and assisting in the major projects<br />
that he has going on. I am in constant communication<br />
with him throughout the day and am on call for<br />
whatever he needs. For example, we are opening a<br />
new restaurant in October and I’ve been able to work<br />
very closely with him on multiple projects for the new<br />
location. For Dillon, I manage his calendar, scheduling,<br />
assist with high-level projects that we have going on<br />
throughout the company, and help with HR matters<br />
when needed.<br />
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART OF YOUR JOB?<br />
My favorite part of my job is working directly with Jeff<br />
Ruby. He is an incredible boss that loves giving back<br />
to the community. Even though I am on call for him,<br />
he is grateful and is always mindful of my time. Since<br />
my dad passed away, he has become something of a<br />
father-figure to me and I know my parents would love<br />
that I work for him and would be proud of the work I<br />
do each day.<br />
A GROWING<br />
LEGACY<br />
Several alumni have chosen to return to <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
and build into the next generation of students who<br />
will impact the world for Christ. We are thrilled to<br />
welcome them back to <strong>CHCA</strong> to build upon the<br />
very foundation from which they launched! They<br />
are key to growing <strong>CHCA</strong>’s legacy.<br />

Center in Ocala, Florida in the $75,000 Hunter Derby in March of 2021<br />
RACHEL KOLAR ˇ17,<br />
Owner of Kolar Equine Therapy<br />
We started KET, Kolar Equine Therapy, in the fall of 2019, after seeing<br />
and experiencing a need for quality care and therapy of horses. We<br />
partnered with a company called MagnaWave to provide holistic,<br />
non-invasive therapy that has actually been in the equine industry for<br />
over 30 years. But it was the first time it had ever been introduced to<br />
horses in the area.<br />
In June <strong>2022</strong>, after an insane series of “Hi God” moments, we<br />
launched Providence Farm. (One of my former teachers, Mr.<br />
Hildebrand, explained this to me as moments in your life where<br />
something happens for a reason, and God points you in a direction<br />
that you never thought you’d take, which is exactly what happened<br />
when we bought the farm.) So it starts that I was showing my horse<br />
at The Kentucky Horse Park. We were supposed to be there for two<br />
weeks. During the first week, my trainer (Karen Reid, fellow alumna<br />
Liza Reid's ’18 mother) heard from another trainer that the owners<br />
of her farm were putting it up for sale. We didn’t think much of it, just<br />
that it was interesting. The next day while showing, my horse and I<br />
had a horrific accident, where we truly thought we may lose him. We<br />
thought he had broken his leg, which is a fatal injury in horses. He<br />
spent the next week in one of the best hospitals in the country, Rood<br />
and Riddle Equine Hospital. After a week, we discovered he came<br />
out with minor injuries, but it would take at least a year to bring him<br />
back the correct way. We started looking at rehab facilities, but soon<br />
realized there weren’t any in the area. When we got home, I mentioned<br />
that this farm was for sale. The next day my mom mentioned this to<br />
a friend, who decided he wanted to see the farm. I called the current<br />
owner and asked if we could come out that day and take a tour. The<br />
three of us arrived at the farm. We walked in. Walked out. And the<br />
50<br />
friend, and now investor, made a full cash offer. To say my jaw hit the<br />
floor would be an understatement. It was the largest smack in the<br />
face from God we had ever received in our lives. It was obvious that<br />
this is what we were meant to do.<br />
Over the next year, we filled our barn to the point where we now<br />
have a waiting list, and have multiple sponsors helping us keep our<br />
horses happy and healthy. So essentially we provide the best quality<br />
care for horses in the Hunter/Jumper sport. After speaking with many<br />
professionals and veterinarians we soon discovered that in order to<br />
maintain a healthy athlete, they need multiple different types of arena<br />
surfaces to maintain tendon and bone health. We’re currently working<br />
on our third surface at the farm, which will be a grass field arena. We<br />
already have a rubber composite material surface in our indoor arena,<br />
and a limestone sand material in our outdoor arena. We treat our<br />
horses like the professional athletes they are, using similar methods<br />
of therapy and training that many other professional athletes use.<br />
There are multiple amazing parts of my job that I love, the first being<br />
when you can see a difference in the horse after they’ve been treated.<br />
It’s incredibly rewarding. And hearing the feedback from our clients<br />
and our veterinarians about the difference in their horses before and<br />
after arriving at the farm is great, too. The horses are truly happier and<br />
healthier. Another is just being around the horses - they are a lot like<br />
dogs, and they each have their own personalities, likes, and dislikes.<br />
They’re truly incredible, intelligent, and most of all, kind animals. In<br />
the next 5 to 10 years, we hope to become the first and foremost<br />
center for equine rehabilitation. After rehabbing my own horse for<br />
the past year, I’ve realized I have a real passion for it. I hope to expand<br />
KET to include more therapies such as: cryotherapy, aqua therapy,<br />
and many others.
BACK ON THE FIELD:<br />
RYAN BETSCHER ’00<br />
From playing on the first <strong>CHCA</strong> varsity football team to now heading up the <strong>CHCA</strong> Athletic<br />
Department as the new Athletic Director, Ryan Betscher has come back home to where it all started.<br />
After Ryan graduated from <strong>CHCA</strong> in 2000 he went on to Trinity International University to play football and<br />
graduated with a Business Management degree. It was there that he met his wife Alli and they were married<br />
in 2004, only three months after graduating. Today, they have four kids – Penny (8 th grade), Jack (5 th grade),<br />
William (2 nd grade), Carter (K) - all currently following in their father’s footsteps and attending <strong>CHCA</strong>.<br />
For Ryan, sports have always been a passion. When he was young, he played football, basketball and baseball<br />
as well as trying just about everything else. As he got older, he realized how much someone can learn about life<br />
through playing sports. “There are so many life lessons that are taught, like how to work as a team, how to deal<br />
with adversity, and how to respond when the score doesn’t necessarily represent the fight.”<br />
Prior to <strong>CHCA</strong>, Ryan worked for Athletes in Action – a global sports ministry that is headquartered in Xenia, OH.<br />
He served on the executive team as the executive director of the Sports Complex and Retreat Center. The AIA<br />
ministry operated very similar to an athletic department with 10 sport directors, which has helped Ryan jump<br />
right in to his position and make a nearly seamless transition. Ryan says, “It is great to come back to the place that<br />
helped shape who I am. There were so many people who poured into my life when I was a student and some of<br />
them are still here.”<br />
Reconnecting with past contacts and building new relationships with coaches, colleagues and students keeps<br />
Ryan busy at <strong>CHCA</strong>, but his real excitement shows when you talk to him about integrating faith into athletics.<br />
“I believe that <strong>CHCA</strong> is the best place to get a Christ-centered education and I want our athletic experiences<br />
to reflect that as well. We should be so attractive to the outside that it is a no-brainer for any Christian family<br />
to want to send their children to <strong>CHCA</strong> and compete on our teams. I am excited about helping get us to that<br />
point with all our sports. We have a massive opportunity for more discipleship through sport and building up our<br />
student athletes.”<br />

An interview with<br />
ERIN (TATE) SCHMERR ’02<br />
Photographer<br />
TELL US ABOUT YOURSELF AND<br />
YOUR HISTORY WITH <strong>CHCA</strong>.<br />
My parents enrolled me in<br />
kindergarten at <strong>CHCA</strong> the opening<br />
year and I graduated in 2002. My<br />
class was the first to attend <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
from Kindergarten through 12th<br />
grade. We were the original “Lifers”.<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> has always had a special<br />
place in my heart and I have so<br />
many fond memories of my time<br />
there.<br />
After graduating from <strong>CHCA</strong>,<br />
I received my BSW at Xavier<br />
University. I currently live in West<br />
Chester with my husband (Daniel)<br />
and 5-year-old daughter, Adela.<br />
HOW DID YOU GET STARTED<br />
IN PHOTOGRAPHY?<br />
My dad was a hobbyist nature<br />
photographer. When he passed<br />
away, his old camera sat on<br />
my dresser for about six years,<br />
untouched. I had always wanted<br />
to learn how to shoot but didn’t<br />
know where to start. When my<br />
daughter was about 8 months old<br />
(4.5 years ago), my good friend and<br />
fellow alumni, Alyssa Konermann<br />
’06, took the time to teach me how<br />
to shoot with my dad’s camera.<br />
It’s been a passion ever since. I<br />
started out photographing family<br />
portraits but over time my skill<br />
set has leaned toward editorial<br />
and conceptual portraits. My<br />
friend and I run a group called the<br />
Cincinnati Image Makers. We hold<br />
monthly photography workshops<br />
that have grown our group to over<br />
300 members. This has given me<br />
the opportunity to have plenty<br />
of clients who are interested<br />
in creative portraiture for their<br />
modeling portfolios.<br />
WHERE DO YOUR<br />
PHOTOSHOOTS TAKE<br />
PLACE?<br />
Most of our shoots take place<br />
in Cincinnati or surrounding<br />
cities. I try to be very creative<br />
with locations since I feel like the<br />
location pulls a lot of visual interest<br />
in the photo. I’ll spend hours<br />
researching unique locations for<br />
our shoots. 54<br />
WHAT IS THE BEST THING<br />
ABOUT YOUR JOB?<br />
Photography has helped me<br />
express creativity inside me that<br />
lay dormant for too many years. It<br />
also helped me see and appreciate<br />
beauty all around me. Now<br />
when I’m out and about I notice<br />
beautiful things that I had always<br />
overlooked. It’s always the simple<br />
things. I’ll notice the pretty way the<br />
light comes through the kitchen<br />
window, or the color of the tall grass<br />
on the side of the road. Everything<br />
to me is a potential shoot location!<br />
My absolute favorite part about<br />
my journey so far is all the people<br />
I’ve met along the way. I’ve met so<br />
many creative people outside my<br />
usual circle and they’ve all pushed<br />
me to grow in different ways.<br />
TELL ME ABOUT THE PHOTOS<br />
THAT ARE IN VOGUE – HOW<br />
DID THAT HAPPEN?<br />
Recently, Vogue has allowed people<br />
from all over the world to submit<br />
photos to be considered for their<br />
website. They have limited times<br />
and limited quantities they accept<br />
for review from each potential<br />
photographer. The Vogue Italia<br />
editorial team then will select the<br />
photos they wish to publish on the<br />
site. It’s an amazing opportunity<br />
for someone like me (a mom living<br />
in Ohio) to see some of their work<br />
watermarked with the Vogue label<br />
and on the Vogue website. I always<br />
joke that it’s like the cool kids at<br />
school let me sit at their lunch<br />
table. It’s a great feeling!<br />
ANYTHING EXCITING ON<br />
THE HORIZON YOU CAN<br />
SHARE?<br />
I have a few fun, high fashion<br />
styled shoots coming up. One<br />
shoot will be in the ornate theater<br />
at Memorial Hall in OTR. I’m also<br />
in talks with a local artist/ fashion<br />
designer about photographing their<br />
upcoming museum exhibit. I’m<br />
very excited for both. I also have<br />
an interview coming out soon in a<br />
New York fashion magazine.

ADOPTING WILLIAM<br />
When their original adoption plans fell through due to Covid, Nick<br />

it all to God and simply show up.<br />

how He fit it together as perfectly<br />
as He did.”<br />

CONSIDERING INTERNATIONAL ADOPTION<br />
Adoption was not really on my radar until I married my<br />
husband, Nick. He lived in Southeast Asia in early adulthood<br />
and shared how his heart would break for the orphans and<br />
marginalized children he met there. The country would do<br />
its best to help, but it obviously couldn't compare to a loving<br />
family.<br />
After we were married for a couple of years and began to<br />
think about expanding our family, adoption, particularly<br />
international adoption, kept making its way into our<br />
conversation. So much so that we had booked a trip to<br />
Vietnam for March of 2020, intending to soak up as much<br />
of the culture and experiences as we could so we could come<br />
home, pray some more, and see if that was where we needed<br />
to pursue the adoption process.<br />
A CHANGE IN DIRECTION<br />
As we all know too well, everything changed in 2020. Our<br />
trip was canceled, and we found a lot of time on our hands<br />
to devote to our dream of adoption. As we dug into the<br />
process more, our country search expanded, and we found<br />
ourselves drawn to Colombia for various reasons. The more<br />
we explored, the more it felt like the right fit. On Mother's<br />
Day of 2020, we officially entered the Colombia adoption<br />
process with an organization called All God's Children<br />
International.<br />
The process was difficult and tedious but, at the same<br />
time, natural and encouraging. At one point, I realized my<br />
only option was to surrender the process to God to make it<br />
through. As a “planner,” it became overwhelming to try and<br />
control what I had zero control over. God, very lovingly, put<br />
into my head that all we had to do was show up, do our part,<br />
and then hand it over to Him.<br />
THE LORD’S PERFECT PLAN<br />
Looking back, I am utterly amazed how He fit it together as<br />
perfectly as He did. There are hours, upon hours, upon hours<br />
of coursework, paperwork, social work, fingerprints, notaries,<br />
apostilles, government forms, international government<br />
forms, etc, etc, but somehow, God worked it all out perfectly.<br />
This past March of <strong>2022</strong>, Nick and I traveled to Colombia<br />
and officially adopted William.<br />
BEING GOOD STEWARDS<br />
Adoption, especially international adoption, is not cheap.<br />
Before starting down the adoption path, Nick and I prayed<br />
about this part of the equation. We already had two<br />
daughters (my stepdaughters) to think about, and we<br />
wanted to be good stewards of our finances. Practically<br />
speaking, when we looked at the finances on paper, it did<br />
not add up. Even so, we both felt this nudge that God was<br />
telling us to leave that portion to Him. We learned quickly<br />
that when you agree to partner with God to do something<br />
He has directed you to do, you will be amazed! While we<br />
definitely made some changes to our daily lives to save for<br />
the process, He came fully and fiercely to make up the rest,<br />
something we could have never dreamed of at the onset of<br />
the process.<br />
THE JOYS OF MOTHERHOOD<br />
There are so many things that I love about being a mom!<br />
I love how much life and laughter William brings to our<br />
family and extended family. I love seeing his curiosity<br />
about everything around him and watching him learn new<br />
things daily. I've always loved watching my husband be an<br />
incredible Dad to his daughters and watching him with<br />
his son is no different. It melts my heart hearing William’s<br />
deep belly-giggles when his Daddy makes silly faces at him<br />
or throws him up in the air. Of course, hearing him say<br />
“mama”, having him spontaneously run up for a hug and<br />
snuggle, and rocking him to bed at night are all very high<br />
on the mommy-heart list.<br />
OUR FAMILY IS OUR FOCUS<br />
One of the most important things for Nick and I as we were<br />
going through the adoption process, and still is essential<br />
for us, is to be on the same team. It may sound cliché, but<br />
it's true! It’s a long process, and it can be testing; there are<br />
definitely discouraging times and many unknowns. Being<br />
on the same team means encouraging each other when<br />
one of us needed it, not holding a grudge when things<br />
were done differently than we personally would have done<br />
them, picking up the bar when the other needed rest, and<br />
keeping God, our marriage, and our family as our focus.<br />
We knew getting into this that it was bigger than us simply<br />
wanting to be parents. We’re all asked to help the helpless<br />
in different ways, and we are beyond grateful and honored<br />
that God asked the Dyson team to answer this call by<br />
adopting our sweet little William.<br />

A NEW PERSPECTIVE:<br />
ALUMNI STILL LEARNING<br />
Meredith Stutz ’12 shares what it was like to travel to Israel with fellow <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
alumni and families.<br />
60
Traveling to the Holy Land was a profound, perspectivechanging<br />
experience. Our trip was supposed to happen in June<br />
2020. Understandably, a global pandemic had other ideas. After<br />
two years of delays, moves and pivots, our trip was Israel bound<br />
on June 11, <strong>2022</strong>. It was a privilege to travel with my mom, Dr.<br />
Nicholas, <strong>CHCA</strong> families and fellow alumni. To walk in such holy,<br />
complex and ancient cities and sites helped expand my view<br />
of what it means to be a Christ Follower and respectful Global<br />
Citizen.<br />
Spending time reflecting and adventuring with my fellow alumni<br />
was special because we grew up being taught the same things<br />
about the Bible. However, to choose to be there together as<br />
adults was a different level of being students of life. Dr. Nick led<br />
us well, while also encouraging us to seek out unique adventures<br />
along the way. From riding camels, to boating on the Sea of<br />
Galilee to trekking through an ancient tunnel, we had the time of<br />
our lives. We also shared a humility, curiosity and intentionality<br />
of wanting to lean into our faith. We personally saw what life may<br />
have been like for Jesus. This trip made Him more human and<br />
His life even more profound. My personal highlight was being<br />
baptized, along with so many of my fellow alumni, by Dr. Nick<br />
in the Jordan River. There was an atmosphere of celebration,<br />
dedication and encouragement among each other.<br />
I am thankful for the opportunity to see the Holy Land, connect<br />
more with Christ and share these profound memories with dear<br />
friends and family.<br />

MEET JON ECKERT<br />
“It’s important for <strong>CHCA</strong>’s Board of Trustees to have varied points of view and to bring expertise<br />
in key areas, such as Christian education. We are so blessed that Jon Eckert, a renowned expert in<br />
Christian education, and <strong>CHCA</strong> advocate, joins us on the Board this year, and we’re excited to see how<br />
this will expand our overall strategic approach.” – Amy Connor, <strong>CHCA</strong> Board of Trustees President<br />
I have been in education for 27 years, including 14 years in higher<br />
education, and also time at the U.S. Department of Education. I<br />
completed my doctoral work at Vanderbilt University and support<br />
and study Christian schools and leadership through the Baylor<br />
Center for School Leadership as the Copple Chair for Christians<br />
in School Leadership.<br />
I think <strong>CHCA</strong> is one of the strongest Christian schools in the<br />
country, and I want to see it flourish.<br />
Dean Nicholas is one of the best heads of school I have ever seen,<br />
and I think the Entrepreneurship program is second to none. My<br />
cousin and <strong>CHCA</strong> Upper School teacher Teri Parker, is also one of<br />
the best educators I know.<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> can truly be a light for Christian education. The families,<br />
students, and educators here make an amazing community of<br />
learners who ground everything in the truth of the gospel.<br />
My wife, Carolyn, and I have three children – Ben (19), Sarah (17), and Grace (14). Ben is a sophomore at Baylor.<br />
We love spending time together as a family. Fun recent fact – my son and I ran with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain<br />
this summer!<br />
WELCOME TO THE <strong>CHCA</strong> COMMUNITY, JON!<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> was featured in the recent release, “Future Ready: Innovative<br />
Missions and Models in Christian Education”, featuring Jon Eckert as<br />
one of the co-authors.<br />
DID YOU KNOW?<br />
“A growing number of Christian schools are responding to adaptive<br />
challenges and missional opportunities by innovating new structural,<br />
financial, and operational models for Christian education.<br />
The research in this book traces the stories of 11 Christian schools<br />
and networks that have engaged in fundamental mindset changes<br />
around what it means for Christian schools to be future-ready.<br />
The stories and strategies shared will inspire leaders to think<br />
innovatively, strategically, and above all, missionally about how<br />
to reach future generations with the love of God through healthy,<br />
thriving Christian schools.”<br />
Praised by leaders in higher education, this book highlights the great<br />
work that <strong>CHCA</strong> and other innovative schools are doing to forward<br />
Christian education.<br />

TOGETHER AS ONE<br />
TO SERVE AND GROW<br />
HIS KINGDOM<br />
Meet <strong>CHCA</strong>’s New Executive Director for Institutional Advancement,<br />
Joe Cornely!<br />
Six short weeks ago I was blessed to join the Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy family as Executive Director for<br />
Institutional Advancement. I would like to share a little about my experience thus far; how I came to service here, and<br />
my initial thoughts on expanding on the great work already underway.<br />
Prior to joining <strong>CHCA</strong>, I worked for Mount St. Joseph University in various development roles. I was led to this work<br />
after a 25 plus year career in healthcare sales and marketing, and a feeling that my work in that field, while rewarding,<br />
left a void of purpose and service to God. Coming to <strong>CHCA</strong> is a continuation of that journey in an environment of<br />
Christ-centered service. I am in awe of the talent, dedication, and kindness of everyone I have encountered. I am<br />
humbled by the examples of His presence in the students, staff, and leadership.<br />
Here at <strong>CHCA</strong>, Institutional Advancement includes Admissions, Development, and Data Services that support each.<br />
Last year this lean yet mighty team delivered historic results in fundraising and admissions through the expansion of<br />
passion giving and record level matriculation from 8 th to 9 th grade – among many other significant accomplishments.<br />
They also began the integration of a new student information system across all campuses and all services – this is a<br />
huge undertaking being done with incredible skill and agility. We will venture to continue this trajectory, while refining<br />
some of our processes and focus.<br />
We recognize a need to engage our alumni in personal and meaningful ways, expand the depth and breadth of our<br />
development process, and to be more intentional in the use of information to create greater value for the many<br />
audiences we serve. We commit to continuous improvement and invite your involvement. I look forward to seeing<br />
you at sporting events, theater productions, and at upcoming alumni gatherings. Together as One we will continue to<br />
grow His Kingdom.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
JOE CORNELY<br />
Executive Director for Insitutional Advancement<br />

THE SASSE FAMILY<br />
Noah ’29, Benjamin, Lyla ’30,<br />
Hope ’33, Jen<br />
As we closed out our 2021-22 school year, it was remarkable to see<br />
the collective impact of how our community gave in a “we are all-in”<br />
kind of way! Gifts from our current families, alumni, alumni parents,<br />
grandparents and special friends of our school blessed our community<br />
in a way that leaves a lasting legacy. I love that about what happens<br />
around here. There is consistently a level of excellence achieved in all<br />
that happens within our school. Giving is no exception to that. Our<br />
community gave this past year in a way that was overwhelmingly generous.<br />
Total Giving to what we love at <strong>CHCA</strong> was $1,165,606, far exceeding<br />
prior years of giving and blessing our students in some incredible ways.<br />
70
OF DEVELOPMENT<br />
As you gave to <strong>CHCA</strong>, you impacted all areas across our school to be stronger and better, thus enabling more for<br />
our students.<br />
As a parent of three students at <strong>CHCA</strong>, I see this matched in how our community gives of themselves. Families<br />
here inspire me. <strong>CHCA</strong> families pray together, <strong>CHCA</strong> families serve together and give of their time in countless<br />
ways. Our daughter was recently in a musical, as part of our amazing Fine Arts program. Through that experience, a<br />
fellow <strong>CHCA</strong> mom captured what it’s like to share experiences within our <strong>CHCA</strong> community perfectly. She had just<br />
finished leading a committee that created the most beautiful props for this musical when she shared with joy, “What<br />
a beautiful display of Together as One to be part of this theatre production.” Our directors led with vision and endless<br />
patience, our parents volunteered in every way imaginable, and our children shone brightly on stage.<br />
Together as One, our community gives in every way to be part of this amazing place we call <strong>CHCA</strong>. It’s a gift to our<br />
family to be here and a gift for me personally to serve!<br />
THANK YOU,<br />
<strong>CHCA</strong> COMMUNITY!<br />

Giving is at the heart of <strong>CHCA</strong> and reflects our gratitude for God’s hand on<br />
our school. Our annual spring “30-Hour Challenge” centered around Gratitude<br />
& Giving received overwhelming participation with families praying over our<br />
school for 30 hours, giving to what they love, sharing stories on social media,<br />
and more.<br />
This time was also used as an opportunity to launch a new <strong>CHCA</strong> Alumni<br />
Scholarship. We deeply appreciate our alumni and we love when they choose<br />
72 to continue their legacy and bring their children to <strong>CHCA</strong>.
“It’s a powerful thing to see our <strong>CHCA</strong> community come together for 30 hours of Gratitude and Giving.<br />
We share this moment reflecting with praise all that God does through <strong>CHCA</strong> and prayerfully seeking<br />
to continue advancing His kingdom through our school and our amazing students. Thank you, <strong>CHCA</strong><br />
family, for all the ways you impact <strong>CHCA</strong>!” - Jen Sasse, Associate Director of Development<br />
Here are some highlights we experienced over the 30 hours:<br />
• Our community came together in prayer. With the opportunity to download a prayer guide,<br />
families prayed and gave praise over our students, faculty, and community for 30 hours.<br />
• We had an overwhelmingly positive response to our Alumni Scholarship announcement. We<br />
are thrilled that so many alumni want to return with their children.<br />
• We collectively exceeded our matching gifts so a huge thank you once again to our<br />
Leadership Challengers. You helped inspire giving and we’re grateful for your generosity.<br />
• Generosity overflowed – from a $50K match gift to the many families and friends who gave<br />
financially to what they love at <strong>CHCA</strong>, the 30-hour event culminated in an overall blessing of<br />
nearly $110M in gifts to <strong>CHCA</strong>.<br />
Together as One we make an impact as we<br />
Give to What We Love & strengthen our legacy of generosity at <strong>CHCA</strong>!<br />
I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving. – Psalm 69:30<br />
73
WHEN YOU GIVE TO WHAT<br />
YOU LOVE…<br />
Each year, families so generously give of their time and their resources<br />
to what they love here at <strong>CHCA</strong>. Here is just a sampling of the impact<br />
you are having on our Robotics students.<br />
“Robotics helps me with my current STEM classes.”<br />
“I’ve learned many skills; three<br />
important ones are managing<br />
resources, teaching others, and how<br />
to diagnose and solve problems.”<br />
“Robotics has better<br />
equipped me to solve<br />
real-world problems.”<br />
“Being a member of the robotics team has taught me the importance of time<br />
management. This lesson has allowed me to effectively use my time to be more<br />
productive in all of my schoolwork.”<br />
74
“I learned how to work better in a team, how<br />
to complete a project from the ground up, and<br />
how to operate important machinery, which<br />
will help me when I join the workforce.”<br />
“Our FRC program has led me to<br />
gain critical thinking skills while<br />
simultaneously teaching me the<br />
importance of hard work and<br />
responsibility to achieve success.”<br />
“I've learned to program,<br />
work with others, and<br />
deliver projects on time.”<br />
“As a member of our robotics team, I have learned to integrate all aspects of robotics<br />
which includes overall game strategy, the engineering design process, computer-aided<br />
design and manufacturing, electrical engineering, and programming.”<br />

Celebration <strong>2022</strong> marked year two of a virtual and different feeling for our annual<br />
fundraiser event… but that did not stop the fun!<br />
Over 355 generous participants made this event a<br />
wonderful success, altogether raising $105,000 to<br />
support <strong>CHCA</strong>!<br />
Through our faithful sponsors, many generous donations, fabulous raffle baskets of<br />
treasures; the beautiful John Hardy set generously donated by Yelton Fine Jewelers; the<br />
Golden Apple of Gratitude for a lucky teacher/administrator; and of course, the Free<br />

Since <strong>CHCA</strong>’s earliest days, our engaged<br />
and abundantly generous community has<br />
fueled the mission of <strong>CHCA</strong>, enabling our<br />
students to flourish academically, spiritually,<br />
and socially. Preparing our students for lives<br />
of kingdom impact and influence, the reach<br />
of <strong>CHCA</strong>’s mission spans across our city,<br />
throughout the country, and around<br />
the world.<br />
ADVANCING THE MISSION<br />
Step into <strong>CHCA</strong> and you will discover an<br />
extraordinary, Christ-centered education<br />
unlike any within the city, where our<br />
students have countless opportunities to<br />
CHOOSE MORE. Here they find their place,<br />
pursue their gifts, strengthen their faith,<br />
and make an impact on our world. And the<br />
outcome? Our students realize they can<br />
BE MORE.<br />
