Students are taught a classical education. They are taught the Latin Language for the first four years, and for their junior and senior years, have the choice of either Spanish, French, German, or New Testament Greek. They are taught rigorous math and science courses for all six years. Students take Drama in their junior and senior years, and perform for the school. Students are taught music theory via recorder and keyboard in 7th grade, then in 8th grade participate in a recorder ensemble. In 9th and 10th, Music is choral singing, culminating in public concerts. They study Scripture for four years, and study the doctrine of their own denomination for one year. In high school, they take a daily class for two hours called Humane Letters. In Humane Letters, students study history, literature, philosophy and poetry.

Famous quotes containing the word curriculum:
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
