Big Dreams, Bright Futures and Lots of PROMISE!

Astronauts, athletes, scientists and singers took the stage as our first grade students traded the playground slide for the career ladder during Friday’s Dream Big program. Acting out the roles of their future jobs, students stretched their imaginations and learned that no dream is impossible with God.

A long-standing tradition at Second Baptist School, Dream Big encourages students to dream boldly and trust that God has a purpose for every life. As the opening number, “When I Grow Up,” played, first graders paraded down the aisle in lab coats, leotards, scrubs and scuba gear. With eager steps and cheerful grins, they proclaimed their hopes for the future to an audience of beaming parents, grandparents and friends. 

Closing the performance with the song “I Wanna Be Like Jesus,” first graders declared that, whether on the football field, in the operating room, or serving our country, their ultimate job is “to be like Jesus, so others will see Jesus in [them].”

Reflecting the passion of Second Baptist School, the Dream Big program encourages students to pursue a relationship with Jesus Christ and teaches that our ultimate goal is to bring glory and honor to Him. Full of promise, possibility and potential, these first graders remind us that, with God, we are all a “great big bundle of potentiality!”
