High school is a big deal and comes with lots of changes. This may be the year they start to drive! Parenting isn’t easy, but we want you to know that we’re here for you. Every kid is different, but here are some things that we think could help and be good to know.

One question we believe almost every tenth grader is asking is, "How does this change me and the world?" Tenth graders are more sure of themselves than ever. They can explain to you why they think certain ideas, people, and groups are more important than others. They can explain to you why the things you’ve said are bad are actually okay. But they will start to wonder about how each new thing they hear or experience will impact them or the world. They are testing to see if it’s real by the impact they experience and how it makes them feel. They are also asking this about faith. When your students come to CCStudents, we try to answer this through experiences that go beyond words and into action.

They are full of curiosity…and they value relevance. When a student experiences God in a tangible way that actually makes a difference, they more clearly see how He impacts and benefits their life. And if they see how God makes a difference, they will also start to pay attention to how God invites them to impact the world.
