Guiding Critical Years with Purpose and Truth
The middle school years are some of the most influential in shaping students, both academically and spiritually. At Bethany Christian School, we walk alongside students in Grades 6–8 to strengthen academic skills, deepen spiritual foundations, and build confidence rooted in Christ. With caring teachers, a safe environment, and a Christ-centered approach to leadership and learning, our students are equipped to thrive today and prepared for all that comes next.
The Middle School Experience
Middle school at BCS is designed to meet students exactly where they are — academically, spiritually, emotionally, and socially. As students grow in independence and responsibility, we provide an environment that challenges them to think deeply, act responsibly, and live faithfully. Our teachers serve as mentors and role models, helping students navigate new academic demands, form healthy relationships, and build a strong identity rooted in Christ.
With small class sizes, a supportive community, and daily integration of biblical truth, students develop confidence in who they are and how God has uniquely gifted them. Core subjects are taught using BJU Press, a nationally respected Christian curriculum known for academic rigor and biblical integration. Bible classes draw from Positive Action for Christ and Summit Ministries materials to help students apply biblical truth to real life as they grow spiritually.
Defining Student Success
At Bethany Christian School, success in middle school is not defined by test scores alone. We focus on developing the skills and character traits students need to thrive both now and in the future. Our goal is to help students become responsible, independent learners who work well with others, take ownership of their growth, and think critically — all while staying grounded in biblical truth.
- Cooperation: Learning to work effectively with others, resolve conflict, and contribute as part of a team.
- Personal Responsibility: Taking ownership of actions, managing time wisely, and demonstrating integrity in both academics and relationships.
- Critical Thinking: Developing the ability to evaluate information, ask meaningful questions, and solve problems thoughtfully.
- Goal Setting: Learning to set personal and academic goals, work toward them with discipline, and celebrate progress.
- Perseverance: Building resilience through challenges, learning from mistakes, and growing stronger in both academics and faith.
Spiritual Formation & Biblical Worldview
The middle school years are a time when students begin shaping their personal beliefs, values, and identity. At Bethany Christian School, we intentionally guide students to see every part of life through the lens of God’s Word — helping them build a strong, lasting foundation of faith that informs how they think, lead, and live.
Through daily Bible integration, chapel, prayer, and meaningful mentorship, students are equipped to apply biblical truth in their decision-making, relationships, and personal growth. Our goal is to help students develop deep spiritual roots that will remain strong throughout high school, college, and life.
Our Director of Spiritual Development works closely with faculty to ensure biblical truth is integrated across subjects and throughout school life. Chapel services for middle school are led by the Director of Spiritual Development, while our Student Pastor provides additional spiritual care, guidance, and encouragement for students as they deepen their personal walk with Christ.
Leadership Development
Middle school is a formative time to help students discover their God-given gifts and learn how to lead with wisdom, humility, and integrity. At Bethany Christian School, leadership development is woven into daily life — inside and outside the classroom. Students are challenged to serve others, take personal responsibility, and grow in character as they develop into the leaders God is calling them to be.
- Christ-Centered Leadership: Leading others by first following Christ's example of love, service, and humility.
- Integrity & Character: Developing honesty, responsibility, and consistency in both actions and decisions.
- Encouraging Others: Learning how to support, motivate, and strengthen peers while working toward shared goals.
- Spiritual Growth: Building the discipline to seek God's direction through prayer, scripture, and wise counsel.
- Servant Leadership: Understanding that true leadership is rooted in serving others and glorifying God in all things.
