Middle School
Our dedicated teachers have the privilege and responsibility of positively influencing these young adults as they develop their intellectual, social-emotional and physical selves. Our middle schoolers are:
Inquisitive
Energetic
Reflective
Middle school students will discover an intentional faith integration in every curricular area as the Rochester Christian School staff instructs through the lens of a Christian worldview.
Our use of Cornerstone Questions promotes higher level thinking and encourages a faith connection to the world outside the classroom walls. The modeling and shaping of personal faith, discussing important life questions, and many other faith-nurturing interactions are purposefully utilized by teachers to cultivate our students’ spiritual growth.
The care and concern for each student is evidenced by planning and prayer. Even our Health curriculum is aligned with our intentional faith integration. Most importantly, each student is known and respected for the unique person whom God has created.
8th Grade students have the opportunity to take the following 9th grade courses to receive high school credit:
Algebra
