Academics
The development of a solid, academic program that prepares students to serve the Lord is one of our highest priorities. We believe that students who have been trained in positive character qualities will be well equipped to face the complex challenges our society presents. Therefore, all students are required to study the Bible each semester they attend our school. In addition, our curriculum is distinctive in that we approach all of the subject matter from a Biblical perspective. This Biblical worldview can be seen throughout the curriculum from the textbooks that we use (Primarily Abeka Books) to the way that the material is presented. A framework for thinking that is distinctly Christian will be presented and developed in the mind of each student.
Our curriculum has been developed by Christian educational professionals through a rigorous, systematic process. We have worked through the meticulous process of creating scope and sequence documents and companion curriculum guides to provide continuity and stability in the subject matter we present. Course objectives have been carefully developed to ensure that our academic goals are being reached. Our commitment to a superior academic curriculum has been demonstrated by obtaining accreditation status through an organization that is highly respected in the educational world, the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI).
In addition, we have created a curriculum review cycle that ensures that the subject matter we teach is evaluated on a continuous basis for the purpose of improvement.
Students in the first through tenth grades are given annual standardized testing by means of the Stanford Achievement test. We thank God that our students average in the top 25-30 % nationally on these tests, with many students scoring in the 90th percentile range. SAT results are carefully analyzed by our faculty to determine areas of strengths and needed improvements.
