Throughout the school year, Mount Pisgah students have made some unforgettable memories, like those at Sharptop Cove, the weekly Fresh Air service, homecoming week, and sporting events.. These moments are more than just highlights of the year—they’re the heart of what makes the Mount Pisgah experience so meaningful.
Memories that are made as a big student body in the school community create strong shared bonds between those involved.
Events that are traditional and annual like going to Sharptop, the games at Fresh Air and homecoming can reinforce long lasting memories for everyone year after year.
“Having a community makes me more open with someone even if I’m not close to them, because I know that we both share a bond of knowing somebody else,” said freshman Ellie Lottes.
Memories made at Mount Pisgah shape us into who we are and who we want to become.
This school has championed many friendships, accomplishments and victories. These things can shape a sense of belonging and community into the student body.
“Mount Pisgah has given me these memories and given me such strong bonds in high school,” said freshman Kameryn Johnson. “It feels great going to a school with teachers and people who I know will support me.”
A strong community gives us assurance that those are the people we can lean against and count on. Mount Pisgah grows strong friendships of empathy and kindness and the community here allows students to flourish and grow to be their best selves.
Treasured memories by both students and teachers, present and past, at SharpTop each September is a powerful example of how the school nurtures this community.
Over the course of a few days, students and teachers step away from the routines and monotony of a typical school day to connect through chapel, Cabin Time, shared meals, and time playing games and just being together. It’s a time to be still, reflect and build relationships in a deeper way.
Mount Pisgah’s traditions and culture of connection continue to shape students, not just in who they are now, but in who they are becoming.
These memories, rooted in faith and fellowship, will remain with them far beyond their four years at Mount Pisgah.
