At Park Christian School, our junior high program (7th and 8th grade) is designed to be a safe, supportive environment where we partner with parents to guide students through this important stage of life. Our goal is to help students grow from the dependence of junior high into the independence required for high school, with a strong emphasis on personal responsibility.
These formative years are critical. As students build a foundation of knowledge, develop effective study habits, and cultivate a genuine desire to learn, they are preparing for success in the years ahead.
Our curriculum strengthens core academic skills while preparing students for the challenges of high school. Students engage in Math, Science, English, Social Studies, Physical Education, Bible, and Computer/Careers courses. They also have opportunities to explore their interests through electives such as Band, Choir, Orchestra, Art, and Worship Arts.
In the fall, junior high students attend a retreat focused on building relationships—with one another and with Jesus Christ. This experience creates space for meaningful conversations, spiritual growth, worship, and lasting memories. In 8th grade, students also participate in fundraising activities that help prepare for their class trip to Washington, D.C. in 9th grade.
Spiritual growth is woven into daily life at PCS. Students participate in weekly chapel services, Bible classes, and daily devotions, along with special Spiritual Emphasis Days throughout the year.
Our athletic programs give students the opportunity to compete in sports within a Christ-centered, encouraging environment. Coaches are committed to developing student-athletes who model integrity, teamwork, and Christian sportsmanship.
Beyond the classroom and athletics, students can get involved in a variety of enrichment opportunities, including math competitions, spelling bee, yearbook, Chick-fil-A Leadership Academy, and Student Council.
Park Christian junior high students are known for their character. They are students who demonstrate respect, kindness, and acceptance of others. When challenges arise, we focus on restoration and growth. Love remains at the center of every conversation, shaping a community where students feel valued, supported, and inspired.
