Academics and CurriculumThe curriculum of Evangel Christian School is designed to provide a Christian education that meets the educational requirements set forth by Evangel Baptist Church. Graduation requirements meet or exceed the standards contained in the Virginia Educational Statutes. Classes are self-contained, administered by a teacher and have a controlled student-teacher ratio. The curriculum draws upon quality materials from sources such as A BEKA Books (Pensacola Christian Schools), Bob Jones University, and others. In some classes, books published by secular textbook companies are used. Evangel Christian School does not subscribe to any position in these textbooks that are in disagreement with a Biblical world-view. The K-4 and K-5 programs are designed to prepare boys and girls spiritually, academically, socially, and emotionally for the elementary school program. The K-4/K-5 student begins many of the basic learning skills such as reading, math basics, and Bible memorization. The reading program is based upon the learning of phonics. The elementary program is designed to develop learning skills in all subjects including English, spelling, reading, math, science, history, Bible, and physical education. Music, poetry, art, creative writing, and penmanship are also an important part of the program. All students in grades 7-12 will
have a course of study recommended to them by the staff and administration.
Evangel offers a course of study for those preparing for college. In order
to graduate from the high school, a student must receive a credit for Bible
each attending year and accumulate a minimum of 22 credits during grades
9 through 12, which must include certain specific required courses. Advanced Studies Diploma Requirements
