There are a number of options available for students to participant in outside of school to further their desire to learn and grow their minds.

Every year, the 8th grade class goes either to Washington DC or Springfield, IL to view the sites at our state or nations capital.

All students participate in choir on a weekly basis. The 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds are led by Ms. Emily Allor. Kindergarten - 2nd graders participate in the “Cherub Choir”, under the direction of Mrs. Allison Golz. 3rd – 8th graders sing in “Kids of His Kingdom”, under the direction of Mr. Mark Trapp. These choirs also participate regularly in Sunday morning worship services, leading the congregation and giving glory to God through their musical offerings.
