Academics -- Northwest Hills Christian School uses a high quality, innovative, advanced Christian curriculum - the ABeka Curriculum.
Bible -- Because it is the inspired, absolute and infallible, authoritative word of God, the Bible is the core of our curriculum. Daily Bible classes and weekly chapel meetings introduce students at all levels to Scripture so that they not only understand the word of God, but are motivated to obey it.
Language Arts -- Our program is based on a direct and systematic and very strong phonetic reading program, which also integrates comprehension and critical thinking skills. Grammar, writing and spelling are integral parts of this program. Achievement tests given each spring prove the success of this highly structured language arts program.
Mathematics -- Our program consists of the use of manipulatives utilized by hands-on instruction, as well as daily drill on the fundamental skills of mathematics.
History -- God has a plan. We teach the students good citizenship through an understanding and appreciation of our Christian and American heritages.
Science -- Our students explore the wonders of creation from a biblical point of view. We teach the student how to research and reason logically from a biblical perspective. Inquiry learning is taught through hands-on experiments as well as instruction in elementary principals of earth sciences, physics, biology, and chemistry.
Computer Science -- All students (Kindergarten through 6th Grade) attend weekly computer classes. Kindergarten begins with a familiarization with the space bar, enter, arrows and a mouse and grades 1st through 6th learn keyboarding skills and computer care. Our 7th graders have one semester of daily computer classes which covers computer history, programming, word processing, date base and spread sheet skills.
Physical Education -- Our Physical Education program is conducted outdoors as well as indoors in our new gymnasium! We offer a structured environment where your child can develop their best through hard work and fun with their classmates!
Sports Program -- We offer a diverse sports program for our students Kindergarten through 8th grade. As members of the Christian Athletic League, we compete against other Christian schools in Soccer, T-Ball, Baseball, Softball, and Basketball.
