Before they begin working on their first carpentry project, they had to first choose a tool to not only recreate out of cardboard, but to also create a presentation on to present to their classmates. They taught their classmates about the function of the tool, how to properly use it, as well as the safety procedures and regulations when using the tool.

Delhi Charter Alumni Spotlight ( Dustin Pierce ) Class Of 2006

Delhi Charter's Jr High and High School FCA Leaders are attending a youth leadership training for huddle groups around campus in Oak Grove, La. We are proud to see our student leaders stepping up to lead in bible study and prayer with other students. What is a Huddle Group? A Team Huddle is a targeted study within a unique individual team setting/environment that encourages and challenges team members to live and compete according to biblical principles. The Team Huddle can be organized to include one or both of the following elements: Weekly Team Devotion – organized to occur around practice times or whatever works best for the team schedule. Team Chapel – A game-day gathering designed for athletes and coaches to experience a time of spiritual devotion and fellowship.
