Private Junior High School (Grades 7-8)
The Secondary program at Berean Christian School features an intentionally Christ-centered and Biblically-based curriculum while academically sound, intellectually challenging, and creatively varied. Berean Christian School enjoys an ethnically varied student population.
We at Berean believe God has uniquely created and gifted each student as He has purposed. As such, we try to present avenues to develop those gifts and talents by offering opportunities in art, music, drama, evangelism, community service, and athletics in a safe and encouraging environment; ESE services are also available. Each week students participate in chapel or Life Groups. Junior High is a transitional chapter in every student's life when academic foundations are solidified in preparation for success in high school.
