Middle School

The Middle School believes the role of the faculty and administration is to provide students with a transition between elementary and high school. This belief guides all decisions made in the division including schedule design, disciplinary system, advisory program, elective courses, athletic program and spiritual development of students. During their four years in Middle School, faculty works with students to develop personal responsibility, ability to study God’s Word independently, and academic proficiency providing them with the foundation to be successful in high school.

Abundant Life

Parkview Baptist School strives to be academically excellent along with providing a Christ centered education. Students are privileged to be able to Worship God freely throughout the day in many different areas of school.  Abundant Life refers to Christian teachings on prosperity and health for the total human being, including the body, mind, emotions, relationships, material needs, and eternal life. The Bible, the good news (Christianity), and salvation are essential elements of these teachings.  In and out of the classroom teachers incorporate abundant life teaching students of God’s Love and Glory.

Academics 

The middle school curriculum actively engages students in problem solving and critical thinking. Through science labs, writing conferences, cooperative learning activities, technology-based projects, experts visiting the classrooms and field experiences, students have ample opportunity to develop critical thinking skills while learning the necessary content. Many courses are also available in the honors track.  Eighth grade students can earn high school credit in several areas including math, science, health and second languages.
