Junior High Classes
Students in the junior high start the day in their
homeroom with pledges, Bible reading and prayer.  Each
day has six periods, a morning break and lunch.  Each
period is fifty-two minutes long.  After the first two
periods, there is a twenty minute morning break.  
Students usually talk and get something to eat.  This is
followed by two more periods before the thirty minute
lunch.  Students may bring their lunch or support
different organizations at the school by buying pizza,
nachos, and chicken nuggets on different days.  After
lunch there are two more periods.  

A typical day has Bible, English, history, math, science,
and French classes.  English includes grammar, spelling,
and literature.  History may be US History, World History,
or Pennsylvania History.  Math may be Pre-Algebra or
Algebra 1.  Junior high science is Earth Science and Life
Science.  Bible class includes learning about Old and
New Testament characters and Bible memorization.   
Computer instruction and chapel are usually held once a
week.  

Classes are rigorous and homework is to be expected
each night.  At the end of each year, there is an awards
ceremony recognizing those who have been on the
honor roll, maintained perfect demerit records, and kept
perfect attendance.  

There is much more to Mount Carmel than classwork and
homework.  The active sports program has volleyball,
basketball and track for girls and soccer, basketball and
track for guys.

Students participate in major programs for Veterans Day
and Christmas.  There is at least one major field trip each
year. These trips have been to Washington, DC and the
Antietam Battlefield the past two years.  There are two
parties a year at Christmas and Valentine’s Day and
usually some bowling excursions.   In the fall, there is a
spiritual emphasis week which has special chapel times
and special times of fun for the students.  In the winter,
there is spirit week when students show school spirit by
participating in different fun activities.
