Curriculum

We use a variety of publishers for our junior high curriculum. The curriculum integrates academic subjects and Biblical truth to provide students with a Christian understanding of the world we live in. While our curriculum emphasizes the fundamentals of reading, writing, and mathematics, it also provides excellent materials for science, history, geography, health, and computer technology.

The Bible is an important part of our school curriculum and is included in each day’s studies. On Wednesdays, we have a chapel service for junior high students that include worship, prayer, and a Biblical message.

Technology

Students use the computer lab on a weekly basis. Our technology program integrates software and an internet based technology curriculum from K to the 8th Power to teach computer literacy, research and communication skills, and reinforce learning in academic subject areas. The computer lab is also used by the newspaper staff, student council and for other special projects.

Library

Our school library has over 3,000 cataloged volumes. We have a computerized card catalog and checkout system and students have the opportunity to use the library on a regular basis. The computer lab workstations can be used to search the library catalog as well as public library online catalogs. Online research is also possible when approved and supervised by a school staff member.
