Students in the senior high start the day in their
homeroom with pledges, Bible reading and prayer.
Their day then consists of 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 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 includes Bible, English, history, math,
science, and French. The English includes
grammar, spelling, and world literature, British
Literature and American Literature. At least one
Shakespearean play is studied each year. The
