Growing in Faith

By: Gel Caminero, COJ Alumna (GS Class of 2006)

COJ has helped me grow by making me appreciate God and all the works He has done for us. The school made me read the bible and join in the games related to Religion which I really loved. Also, the teachers accepted me despite my hearing impairment and supported me until my last year in COJ.  Studying there made me feel that there are some people who accept others no matter what they are.  COJ also taught me to always have faith in God and to consult Him whenever I have a problem or when I’m troubled.

Thank you, COJ, for all you’ve done for me.

Gel transferred to COJ as a 2nd grader.  Born with severe to profound hearing loss, she never used her condition as an excuse and performed well in school.  Gel is an incoming senior at Reedley International School.
