In the junior grades the students learn and discover more about God, His world, and their place in it. The students’ growing independence allows them to see God's hand in the stories they read in literature, in their studies in science, and in the human interactions they observe in social studies. It is in these grades that the students are challenged to see God's sovereignty, Christ's mercy, and the Spirit's guidance over all of creation and in every aspect of their schooling.
