Policies > CURRICULUM A blended curriculum of A Beka, Bob Jones University, Pro-Christian Series, ACSI and Saxon (7th - 12th grade math) are superior, high standard curricula. This, along with reference and text material, complements our creative and well-structured format. Weekly supplementals include Physical Education, Art, and Music. Reading is taught using proven and established phonics methods. Oral reading and comprehension is emphasized. Additional reading is strongly encouraged with a focus on the classics. Mathematics is taught using traditional methods from Kindergarten through Twelfth grade. Science program incorporates God's laws and principles into and understanding of the universe. Creation is taught stressing Biblical principles. History and patriotism are combined in evaluating the past to form a framework for the present and format for the future. Biblical truths are taught in all subject areas with Scripture memorization part of the educational program. Physical education is an integral part of the curriculum. The program teaches students to establish fitness goals and practice sportsmanship. Fine arts is an important part of the program. The Drama Team ministers within the school. Character training takes place throughout every day with "values" being reinforced as they are developed in the Christian home. Weekly Chapels are given by local pastors, missionaries, teachers or parents. Special all-school events and relevant and age appropriate field trips take place throughout the year. Appropriate homework assignments are given for grades 1-12, with a parent-signed homework policy for grades 1-6. A correction packet is sent home on Fridays to be reviewed by parent(s). A letter is attached to the correction packet and should be signed by the parent and returned to school. A signature is required for grades 1 - 8. A signature is required for high school on an individual basis as requested by teacher and/or parent. Each teacher sends home an overview of the next week's activities. In the situation of a combined grade classroom, subjects that have no grade-level difference, such as history, science or Bible may be taught together. |
