We guide the growth of our students from middle school to high school.
In middle school, our students begin to develop a deeper understanding of their unique interests and strengths. We encourage students to get involved in clubs and activities, and participate in community events to practice servant leadership and further discover the person they are called to be. Students are also given more academic support as they take on more challenging and rigorous opportunities and responsibilities.

Biblically-integrated academic curriculum.
Core academic disciplines are integrated with Biblical teachings to provide students a holistic education. We believe in preparing our students to succeed in high school not just academically, but personally and spiritually.
As they grow into their unique selves and come up against a number of challenges, we mentor our students in their emotional and spiritual growth and reliance on Christ through struggles and hardships.
Growing together in community.
Our students have many opportunities to deepen friendships and develop lifelong skills through team collaborations, clubs, and activities. From going on trips, to volunteering through service projects, to playing on athletic teams, our middle schoolers get to strengthen their knowledge in community and service to others.
