ACADEMICS AT ECS
Our goal at Evangelical Christian School is to provide an optimized learning environment in which students can analyze information, formulate ideas, and express themselves clearly all from a Biblical worldview.
Our desire is to see each student have success with a rigorous academic schedule. There are essential elements to help them achieve character growth: Bible class, weekly chapels, and strong student-teacher relationships.
Not only do we want to see our students achieve academic growth, but also cultivated hearts and minds.
HIGH SCHOOL
The high school focuses on preparing each student to succeed in college as a young, Christian leader. Our courses strive to intertwine a central Biblical worldview into all phases of academic classes with an added emphasis on higher level critical thinking skills. We encourage our students to participate in school related extra-curricular activities. A diverse sports program provides physical development, healthy competition, and important lessons in cooperative teamwork. The fine arts program assists students in discovering and developing God-given talents.
MIDDLE SCHOOL
Middle school serves as a critical bridge between the formative elementary years and the more challenging high school years, providing students with a safe and nurturing environment to grow academically, socially, and spiritually. At this stage, it is essential to incorporate a curriculum that not only emphasizes traditional academic subjects but also instills Biblical principles, helping students develop a strong moral foundation as they approach their teenage years. Additionally, middle school offers unique opportunities for students to explore their interests and talents through high-level athletic competitions and comprehensive Fine Arts programs. These experiences help cultivate well-rounded individuals, encouraging teamwork, creativity, and perseverance, all of which are invaluable as students transition into the next phase of their educational journey.
LOWER SCHOOL
Lower school students are constantly challenged to go beyond the status quo. The quest for excellence pervades the all-inclusive, college-preparatory curriculum. Using traditional methods in a modern day setting, each student is encouraged to do his best. Homework, report cards, dedicated teachers, and informed parents are the rule and not the exception.
