7th-8th Grade
We are excited to announce the new addition of our 7th-8th grade junior high program! This option for your older students will still meet Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9am-3pm and will offer slightly longer class times to allow for deeper exploration into subject matter and lengthier projects and experiments. The program will include core subjects as well as a focus on the arts, world cultures, learning to defend your faith, and more.
