Board directive, elementary teachers give none on Wednesday nights in order to encourage families to attend mid-week Bible study. The development of school-wide technology is a priority—all classrooms have been equipped with computers—internet access is available to all students via our computer lab and library media center. Several classrooms are currently using Smart Boards. Kindergarten has added a Smart Table to their curriculum. Starting Fall of 2012 all 7th -12th students will use an iPad. Secondary faculty have been using the iPad as a teaching aide in their classroom for over a year. • Virtual Notebooks were introduced into secondary school science classrooms in the spring of 2009 in order to allow teachers to project images and text onto screens from any location in their classrooms. • A Job Shadowing Program for seniors was introduced during the 2008-09 school year. • Elementary students in grades 3-5 participate in a “Career Week” during each school year. • Chapel sessions are held each day for assembly and/or worship and special spiritual emphasis days are sponsored each fall to involve students in community service. • The school sponsors voluntary, educational trips each fall and spring. The fall trip to Washington, DC is open to 8th graders and 10th graders take trips to Pennsylvania, Gettysburg and Niagara Falls. Trips to Boston and New York City alternate each spring and are available to juniors and seniors.
