Senior Thesis/Project Presentations

Rose Lortz — Wed, 19 May 2010 00:43:05 +0000

You are invited to attend the King’s Academy Senior Thesis Defense Tuesday evening, May 25, 7:00 PM at RCC. King’s Academy students are required to complete a persuasive thesis or a hands-on project during their senior year in order to graduate. This is intended to be a “capstone” to their education, and to utilize and demonstrate their God-given talents as well as the skills they have acquired during their time at Kings Academy. They have each spent between 50 and 80 hours on this project, and are preparing a demonstration of their work for Tuesday night. Our three seniors this year have each chosen a hands-on project:

- Nick Fukuda will be presenting the plans for his design of a “pool house” building and surrounding landscaping for eventual construction on the Fukuda‘s property.

- Anna Tooze will be presenting “Nightingale,” a children‘s book which she wrote and illustrated in watercolor.

- Katy Hoogendam will be presenting a cookbook she made of over 30 recipes for people with egg and sugar allergies.

Hello Dolly a Success!

Rose Lortz — Mon, 17 May 2010 02:15:55 +0000

The King’s Academy Dinner Theater proved to be a smashing success. Hello Dolly was well received by enthusiastic crowds at three showings. Benjamin Evans, playing head waiter Rudolph Reisenweber, entertained all with his histrionics, and Anna Tooze scintillated as the high-spirited Dolly Levi. Friday night the show debuted to a crowd of around 40 people, while the two Saturday showings had nearly every seat filled with crowds of around 70. The final count is not yet in of how much money the fundraiser produced, but the feedback from attendees has been outstanding.

“Ten Grands” Concert

Rose Lortz — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 16:04:46 +0000

Today King’s Academy and a few of our friends will be taking a field trip to the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in downtown Portland. Each year the Snowman Foundation puts on a benefit concert called “Ten Grands” featuring ten grand pianos and ten concert pianists on stage. This year they are giving several free concerts to school age children, and we were fortunate enough to learn about this and secure tickets.
