![]() Welcome to Strong Rock Christian High School, home of the mighty Patriots! The high school opened with grades 9-10 in the fall of 2007; grade 11 has been added in 2008-2009 and grade 12 will be added in 2009-2010. The high school emphasizes strong academic standards in a Christ-centered environment. Our mission is to glorify God in all that we do. This is especially important in the critical high school years as our students grow, change, and confront the challenges that the adult world brings. Students have the opportunity to learn about God, clarify and strengthen their faith, and worship on a regular basis. Weekly chapel services, Bible classes, and Biblical integration throughout the academic day provide the basis for each student’s spiritual growth. The instructional day for high school students includes opportunities to study the Bible, mathematics, science, social studies, foreign language and English. In each of the core academic courses of study, curriculum standards and instruction focus on preparing our students for college and careers. It is our assumption that Strong Rock graduates will attend college. Our minimum courses of study reflect the admissions requirements of highly respected public and private universities throughout the nation and world. Advanced Placement courses are offered in each content area as students complete the prerequisite coursework. We currently offer Advanced Placement courses in World History, United States History, Literature, and Chemistry. In 2009-2010 we are adding AP Spanish IV, Calculus, and an additional Literature course. When appropriate, the Advanced Placement course offerings will also include Statistics, Biology, Physics, and Studio Art. Specific graduation requirements are posted below and will be consistent with those required by the state of Georgia and other private and/or Christian schools that serve college-preparatory students. Students also have the opportunity to study music in concert, symphonic, praise, and jazz band as well as concert choir and class piano. The fine arts department also includes drama/theater arts and visual arts. Physical education courses include personal fitness and health as well as fitness training. Various computer applications and our yearbook program will comprise the curriculum for our technology courses. Additional courses in 2009-2010 will include Financial Peace University, Political Leadership, and a Mentorship program. The instructional day is extended for students who wish to participate in a variety of extra- and co-curricular activities, including a variety of special interest and honors clubs and a full roster of athletic team sports. The faculty and staff of the high school are highly qualified professionally and love the Lord deeply. They work together to provide the type of environment that is critical for the success of our students. We believe that a well-rounded education incorporates roles for all stakeholders. The number one role established for students, parents, and teachers is to study the scripture and listen to God’s direction and all will be good stewards of God’s gifts of knowledge; equipping the children that we are responsible for to impact the world for Jesus Christ (Ephesians 4:12-13).
