Veritas students’ Hobbit Holes

Students Celebrate a Season of Learning and Faith

The last few months have been a vibrant and enriching time for students at Veritas Preparatory School, filled with activities that deepened both their academic learning and spiritual growth.

During April’s Chapel service, students had the unique opportunity to engage directly with a panel of local pastors from Parkside Bible Fellowship and Grace Bible Church. Students were invited to ask any questions related to the Bible, leading to a lively and thoughtful discussion. Topics ranged from theological inquiries to practical applications of faith, and the pastors answered with wisdom and encouragement, providing a memorable experience for all who attended.

In the classroom, Mrs. Pustovrh’s fifth- and sixth-grade students brought literature to life by diving into J.R.R. Tolkien’s classic novel "The Hobbit." As part of their studies, the students designed and built their own hobbit holes, showcasing remarkable creativity and craftsmanship—creations that would have made Bilbo Baggins himself proud.

As Easter approached, the entire school community took time to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Students and staff enjoyed a much-needed break from their studies to spend quality time with family and reflect on the significance of the holiday.

In preparation for the Easter season, the second-quarter hymn, "Christ the Lord Is Risen Today," was chosen to anchor the school’s musical worship. Students enthusiastically learned and sang the beloved hymn, deepening their understanding of its powerful message of hope and victory.

Veritas Preparatory School continues to blend academic excellence with faith-based education, creating a nurturing environment where students grow not only in knowledge but also in character.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
