A Biblical Worldview

All of our academic programs are designed to be family-friendly and reflect traditional family values. From grades three through high school, our online curriculum is built upon a biblical worldview. For students in Kindergarten through second grade, our LIFEPAC and BJU programs incorporate a biblical worldview, while all K-2 programs emphasize a supportive, family-oriented learning environment grounded in traditional values.

At the high school level, our Honors and Advanced Placement (AP) courses are offered through Edgenuity, a secular academic provider. However, across all grade levels and programs, Bible remains a required course for every full-time student, reinforcing our commitment to faith-based education.
