We require lab sciences with extensive hands-on learning opportunities for all students as well as art class for elementary and middle school students, and Japanese language for high school students. All classes are taught from a Christian worldview.
Achievement testing (Iowa Assessments) occurs in the spring of each year, providing students with standardized testing data showing progress as well as comparative analysis data with their peers in the United States.
All high school students are required to take a college preparatory course that walks them through basic career and aptitude material, connects them with SAT and ACT resources, and helps them with the college application process. 100% of our graduates have been accepted at post-secondary institutions with more than 90% choosing to enroll at colleges and universities in the United States, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, New Zealand and other countries.
