We offer a lot of activities for our students from the classroom to field trips and time in the library.
Students in grades one through five receive art instruction one day each week. Grades six through eight may select art as an option. They learn to draw, paint and sculpt using a wide variety of art mediums and methods.

Every day specific elements of godly character are integrated into all curriculum throughout the school. Furthermore, the upper grades study specific books in the Bible and a variety of topical content.
Every other week our students gather for chapel services. Our purpose is to expose students to interesting people who serve the Lord in various occupations and professions. Speakers who are influential role models for children have included missionaries, firemen, policemen, loggers, airplane pilots and business people.

All students learn library and research skills appropriate for their grade level. A typical class session for the primary classes may include book selection, a story read aloud or learning interesting facts about an author’s life. The upper grades receive assistance and instruction in
using the library for research. Children are encouraged to check out books to be read at home. At least once a year the library sponsors a book fair for students and parents.
