MIDDLE SCHOOL
Program
The King's Academy’s middle grades serve students in fifth through eighth grade. One of the core educational beliefs of The King's Academy is that all students can learn and succeed in a loving environment where expectations are high. Teachers at The King's Academy understand that children are unique and do not all share the same learning style. Teachers take time to learn the unique strengths and weaknesses of every student and strive to provide a wide array of educational methods to implement instruction. The school strives to provide a consistently challenging curriculum to benefit all learners within the classroom setting. Each grade level works together to identify individual student needs and abilities, then develops strategies to address those needs effectively.
As a college-preparatory school, The King's Academy is dedicated to the continual pursuit of academic excellence. The scope and sequence of the elementary curriculum is based on national standards for the core academic areas, and the Missouri State Standards for the special areas including Music, Art, Physical Education, and Spanish and World Cultures.
