中学

"Change" is probably the biggest word for middle school students, 很可能是为了你的孩子, too.  Everything is changing; classes become more challenging, 工作量的增加, 体育和美术的要求越来越高, and the social structure becomes infinitely more dynamic and complicated.  如果这些还不够, your child must also deal with physical and psychological changes that come with adolescence.  When you put it all together, middle school can be extremely difficult.

基督教会学院 is not only aware of these pressures, 但是我们的老师愿意, 准备好了, 并且能够提供帮助. 

“I can't say enough about the middle school teachers. They have made the transition from elementary to middle school seamless. I know starting middle school is a tough and scary time for kids, but the teachers at CCA help make it a great experience!
