| WCCA students in sixth through eighth grades are
making memories that will last a lifetime.
Through academics, sports programs, social activities,
and spiritual emphasis, the Junior High Department's
goal is to provide an environment for junior high
students to grow and mature physically, develop a
godly lifestyle, prepare for the rigors of high
school, and provide a solid foundation for making
choices and confronting the challenges of the future.
Junior High students enjoy a new
sense of self, thanks to rotating class and teacher
schedules, lockers, and electives. These
electives provide a welcome break from the routine and
provide opportunities for students to learn new skills
or enhance existing hobbies through classes such as
choir, art, money management, multi-media, drama,
yearbook, computers, and student council. Those
opting for the student council elective must be
elected by their peers and have the opportunity to
develop key leadership skills as they plan, among
other things, end-of-the-quarter parties, inspiring
chapels, field trips, and spirit week.
Traditional recess becomes
"morning break," complete with snack time
privileges in the lunchroom, and afternoon P.E.
classes include "dressing out" in the
official WCCA P.E. uniform. Many more
opportunities for physical education come in the form
of intramural sports at the lunch break and numerous
after-school team sports.
Our staff seeks to be an
extension of the home as we help these pre-teens
develop not only a personal responsibility for their
schoolwork, but also their own Christian worldview as
their faith truly becomes their own.
