Middle School

Grades 6 - 8

Middle School Shouldn't Be Hard. It Should Be Life Changing. 

The middle school years are a time of transition and growth for our students spiritually, physically, socially and emotionally.  Our middle school consists of grades 6-8 and is grounded in the core subjects of Bible, English, Math, Social Studies and Science.  Our students also have the opportunity to enrich their God given talents through opportunities in sports, leadership development, and a variety of enrichment classes. Our goal is to help them foster a love of Christ through a curriculum that is immersed in God’s truths and academically rigorous for each individual learner.
