Crisp Academy
School Notes Overview:
Crisp Academy is dedicated to providing the finest college preparatory educational opportunities possible in traditional disciplines and contemporary skills in a conservative atmosphere with a devotion to Christian principles. Learning experiences are provided which lead students to self-understanding; to a widening knowledge of the society in which they live; and to constructive membership in the world community. If students are to live responsible and satisfying lives, they must acquire values that give meaning and direction to their lives. Crisp Academy believes the Christian tradition provides the richest source for these values and should constitute a fundamental part of each student's day. The curriculum at Crisp Academy places major emphasis on scholastic attainment and character development. Primary Grades: The A Beka Program curriculum with an emphasis on early reading and other academic skills begins in kindergarten (3, 4, and 5K). The curriculum is expanded in grades one through four in the areas of language arts, science, social studies, and mathematics. Music, art, elementary Spanish, and P.E. are included as well Middle School: Grades five through eight are departmentalized. The A Beka Program is continued to some degree. The academic concepts mastered by grade eight carry over into high school....
