Middle School

Where Identity Meets Purpose

Middle school is a pivotal season when students begin to discover who they’re becoming. Their capacity for deeper thought grows alongside a natural desire to understand the world and their place in it. It’s a time filled with questions, possibilities, and a growing sense of independence. It’s a season that calls for more than academic instruction.

At this age, students need a community where truth anchors their identity and trusted mentors walk beside them. They thrive in an environment where they’re known, challenged, and encouraged. They yearn for a place where questions are welcomed and wise guidance helps shape both character and conviction.

That’s the heart of our middle school. We create a space where students feel safe enough to explore, supported enough to take risks, and confident enough to grow into who God made them to be. Here, academic excellence and character formation aren’t separate goals—they’re woven together, strengthening one another every step of the way.

Academic Rigor That Develops Critical Thinkers

Students explore both Old and New Testament studies, moving beyond simple stories to examine how biblical principles apply to complex real-world situations. Through engaging discussions and collaborative projects, they learn to analyze different worldviews and articulate their faith-based perspectives with both confidence and respect. Teachers connect biblical truth to contemporary issues, developing the critical thinking skills students need to navigate an increasingly complex world.

Every subject becomes an opportunity for growth. In science, students explore God's creation through hands-on experiments and STEM projects. In literature, they engage with stories that challenge them to think deeply about character, justice, and human nature. Math concepts connect to real-world applications, while social studies discussions help students understand their role as global citizens.

Through our unique Crusader Family Groups, middle school students mentor younger children while being guided by staff members. These monthly gatherings explore the Crusader Characteristics, examine their biblical foundations, and discuss practical applications. This multi-grade community builds leadership skills while reinforcing character traits that will serve them throughout their lives.

Student Voices

"I am a fellow student who has been attending this school for 12 years and have had no problems. I love the teachers and the staff because they treat you like family. I also love the other students."
"I have gone to this school since I was in preschool and I have always thought it was a great and loving school. Everyone there is so kind and welcoming. They are very kind to the students and all the teachers help the students in loving ways."

Where Questions Find Answers and Confidence Grows

In our classrooms and hallways, you'll find students wrestling with meaningful questions and learning to articulate what they believe with both passion and respect. They're putting their faith to work through community service opportunities, surrounded by classmates from five continents and eight different countries. This rich diversity helps them develop a global perspective while staying anchored in biblical truth.

These are the years when students begin to own their faith rather than simply inherit it. When they discover they're capable of more than they imagined. When everything they've learned in their younger years starts supporting the confident, thoughtful people they're becoming.
