Our secondary program encompasses a rich blend of subjects with an emphasis on clear thinking and gracious, persuasive communication.
Humanities
Our integrated Humanities courses run on a four-year cycle rotating through Ancient, Medieval, Early Modern and Modern timelines. They include:
Through classical teaching methods and Socratic dialogue, students begin to understand, develop and practice critical thinking, judicious discernment, and creative, clear communication, both oral and written.
Language
Students begin their Latin studies at Level 1 and progress through Level 4 or as far as they are able. Our Advanced Latin students build on the foundations laid in Introductory Latin, increasing their vocabulary and growing in their understanding of grammatical concepts using the “middle method” which leads more quickly to proficiency in speaking, writing and even thinking in the target language.
Latin allows our students practice in grammar, etymology, mastery of language skills and rich historical context of the language that is foundational to our western world.
Mathematics
Our Mathematics program places high priority on the skills of observation, inquiry and reasoning. Students at every level are guided into new skills of discovery and problem-solving as they together engage with challenging real-world problems. Offerings at this level include Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Trigonometry/Pre-Calculus, Calculus and Applied/Consumer Math. Our program is intentionally flexible to ensure students are placed at the level that fits their needs.
Science
Our Science program employs a mastery-learning approach that affirms Jesus Christ as the center of all things. Course offerings at this level include a deep and rigorous study in physics, chemistry and biology. We use experiments as foundational to the scientific process of hypothesis and conclusion, fostering curiosity, inquiry, and wonder.
Art & Music
Just as God has given the Arts in order to reveal something of himself for our joy, so he calls us in imitation of himself, to develop and deploy our artistic abilities for his glory and the delight of all who experience them. Christ Academy’s Fine Arts program offers two days of Choir/Music and two days of Art/Art Appreciation each week.
Physical Education
Physical Education credits are earned by independent study with our unique Elective Credit Program.
Senior Thesis
Students submit a Senior Thesis proposal in April of their Junior year. Following approval, they are paired with a faculty advisor who, along with their humanities teacher guides the process through to completion. The Senior Thesis is due in April of Senior year and is presented and defended orally to the school community. The Senior Thesis is the capstone of our program.
*Students are placed in the level best suited to them at the time of admission but may be able to shift depending on their individual needs. This includes students who need acceleration or remedial work in a particular subject but are otherwise at grade level.
