The Academy for GOD high school program begins at grade 9.  By the time a student leaves high school, they should be competent with practical skills, understand themselves and how to work with others, understand the role that God and his Word have in their lives, and have a defined occupational path. In order to reach those goals, the Academy gives special attention to the creative arts, college prep and spiritual development.

 

High School Distinctives

Creative Arts Emphasis

A creative arts emphasis begins heavy in the junior high level and carries through high school. The goal with creative arts is to develop in students lifelong learning and problem solving capabilities. Opportunities in art, drama, and music help students to become dynamic people that can continue to learn and work together beyond secondary school.

College Prep

We offer CLEP and SAT prep courses. These are designed for those students entering college to earn early credit for general curriculum courses. While programs typically exist outside school for these programs, we use in-school class time to help students prepare. Taking advantage of CLEP can eliminate nearly a years worth of general college credits, saving time and money. 

CLEP courses that have been offered at the Academy: 

  • American Literature 

  • History of the US I & II 

  • College Composition 

  • College Mathematics 

  • Biology 

  • Spanish

Academy Missions

High School students at the Academy learn how to be servants. Through local and international missions, they have an opportunity to gain an understanding of God’s concern for “the least of these” (Matt. 25:45), and how they can play a part in helping. Every year we look forward to seeing students have their eyes opened to a bigger, more diverse world than they’ve seen before.

Spiritual Development

Students at the high school level receive and participate in daily and weekly biblical instruction and spiritual disciplines. The core of who we are at the Academy revolves around God’s Word and how it directs the lives of our students from a young age. While the Bible is often incorporated into each class, there are also a number of classes that specifically revolve around spiritual growth, including: 

  • Beginnings - This class begins each day with a weekly biblical theme and verse that students explore in order to implement the Word in their daily decisions.

  • Bible Class  

  • Worship Band 

  • Chapel 

  • Biblical Hebrew 

  • Bible History
