Question 1

Program Overview

Accepted Answer

Parkway Christian School’s Middle School program strives to provide the highest level of education to ensure that each one of our students reaches their optimum potential. Our educators provide a plethora of learning experiences that go far beyond the textbook. These experiences include differentiated instruction, activities that appeal to the multiple intelligences, and scenarios that will prepare them for real life situations. Parkway Christian’s philosophy is to guide and educate the “whole child”. Parkway uses a modified block schedule for the four core classes with two meeting every other day for an hour and ten minutes and 45 minute classes for elective and non-core classes meeting every other day.

Question 2

Middle School Tribes

Accepted Answer

The MS Tribe is an initiative to build relationships between middle school students, teachers, and staff members. It is a community of teachers and students coming together with the main purpose of encouraging one another while creating positive social relationships. This is done through weekly gatherings. All members build relationships through devotionals, icebreakers, and more.

Question 3

Language Arts

Accepted Answer

Our Language Arts curriculum includes high level reading comprehension in genres such as: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, and includes essay writing and learning a general command of the English language.

Question 4

Math

Accepted Answer

Our Math curriculum offers two areas of study. For students who are ready to take on a more challenging math program, we offer a high school Algebra class for middle school students.
 
Our Regular Math Program
Math computations and concepts are taught using an integrated approach. Students in Sixth Grade begin with Course 2 and move on to Course 3 in Seventh Grade. Eighth Grade students learn middle school algebra, which combines PreAlgebra and Algebra together to give students a strong algebraic foundation for high school math. Mastery of basic math concepts and higher level thinking are emphasized in each class.
 
For Eligible 8th Grade Students
We have established criteria for Eighth Grade students to earn a high school regular OR high school honors math credit. This criterion meets the standards for both public and private high schools. Students who are going to public high school are still required to take and pass the Algebra I EOC, which is a state requirement. Please contact Mrs. Garcia for specific qualifications.

Question 5

Science

Accepted Answer

Our Science program aims to give students an in-depth look at Earth Science, Life Science and Physical Science within a Biblical framework. Our curriculum gives students the opportunity to explore the world around them through observation, investigation, theorization and more. Students receive an enhanced approach to learning through hands-on lab work and engaging classroom activities.

Our Social Studies program deepens students' understanding of the world around them while increasing their knowledge of America from beginning to present. Lessons in World History, Civics and American History allow for important class discussions related to the the long-term, world-wide impact governmental decisions have on everyone.
