At Shining Light Academy, academics are the foundation for building confident, well-rounded students. Our strong academic program encourages personal responsibility, achievement, and a love for learning. Our goal is to help every student at our school reach new academic heights. Here’s how we make academics a priority:
- Proven Curriculum: In elementary grades, we use the Abeka curriculum, known for its practical teaching style and intensive phonics instruction that sets students up for strong reading skills. In middle and high school, we transition to the Bob Jones Press curriculum, which emphasizes critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving.
- Traditional Teaching: Students will explore a wide variety of subjects, including math, science, history, literature, grammar, and more, while also attending Bible classes that help them develop universal truths and critical thinking skills.
- Critical Thinking Development: Our teachers go beyond memorization, guiding students to think for themselves, analyze information, and communicate ideas clearly and effectively.
- Exceeding Standards: Thanks to our focused approach, students at Shining Light Academy consistently score above national and state averages on standardized tests.
- Preparation for Life: We offer our middle & high school students specific courses designed for real life. These practical skills courses are created to be age-appropriate and range from budgeting and career planning to leadership through service, time management, and organization.
