Middle School

Grades 6-8 at WCA

As your child enters middle school, he or she will be met with a wealth of new opportunities and challenges.

Growing in Character & Integrity

Middle school is an important season of identity development. During these years, pre-teens are asking themselves big questions like:

“Who am I?”
“Where do I belong?”
“What is my purpose in life?”

 

At WCA, students are intentionally guided as they develop a biblical worldview and discover their God-given gifts. Our character development initiatives are centered around Christian values, building positive friendships, preventing bullying, and how to apply scriptural wisdom to resolve conflicts. This fosters a culture of respect where students learn to become young men and women of integrity.

Developing Gifts & Talents

Middle school is the prime time to try new things. We encourage students to get involved in extracurricular activities, find out what they love, and build friendships based on shared interests. We offer 12 team sports at the middle school level, as well as a variety of opportunities for students to showcase their artistic talents through annual performances.

Preparation for the Road Ahead

WCA middle schoolers expand their biblical knowledge through the integration of Scripture in all subject areas. Weekly chapels and regular mission outreach projects build a strong spiritual foundation and equip students for lives of service. As middle school students explore their callings, events such as class trips and career assemblies provide inspiration for the opportunities ahead.
