How our school got it's name

As you will notice, the name of our homeschool is unique. We spent a lot of time thinking about it and even got the help of my dad. We started with a school verse and mission taken from Isaiah 40:28-31 which reads,
"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths will grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who trust in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not faint."

We feel this verse will give our children a foundational understanding about God that will serve them lifelong. One reason we decided to homeschool is because we believe that our children need to be equipped for spiritual battles. The Bible says that in this world we WILL have trouble. I want our children to know that the only Real strength, the only Real hope, the only Real life worth living is in Jesus Christ.

An aerie is an eagle's nest. It is the safe place were baby eagles grow, are nurtured and learn to fly. We pray that our home and school is this to our children. We pray they learn to fly with Christ.
