In grades 3-5, students focus on Bible doctrines, science, language arts (reading, writing, phonics, spelling, grammar, and punctuation) and arithmetic. Bible Doctrines teaches Bible principles and are the guide of the student’s life. “Used as a text-book, the Bible will do for mind and morals what cannot be done by books or science or philosophy. As a book to discipline and strengthen the intellect and ennoble, purify, and refine the character, it is without a rival.” – Special Testimonies on Education, p. 53.

Students are introduced to the wonders of science in grades 3-4 with an engaging overview of all scientific disciplines. This sparks curiosity and sets the stage for future learning. In grade 5, students delve into the physical sciences, discovering the fundamental principles of chemistry, physics, and astronomy. Through hands-on experiments and real-world applications, they gain a deep understanding of the natural world.

Language arts and arithmetic form the foundation for successful student learning in middle and high school. Students are expected to demonstrate a mastery of the fundamentals of reading, writing, speaking, and arithmetic at the end of grade 5.
