John L. Coble Faculty embrace the opportunity to expand on the elementary foundation with additional spiritual, academic, and social experiences. Walking alongside students in their spiritual journey, students are encouraged to put their faith in action through leadership in weekly chapels, participation in Bible study, and service opportunities that immerse the child in character building experience.
High academic expectations and guided inquiry are hallmarks of the academic experience of middle school. Teachers and staff encourage students to reflect on choices, outcomes, and set goals that stretch them in all areas of their lives. As pre-teens, students and families can choose a wide variety of activities to try as they explore God's calling on their lives. Experiences include: Bell Canto (traveling choir), band, yearbook, Student Association, and athletic teams, and spiritual retreats.
