Jterm

With numerous offerings to choose from, this one-week program of in-depth study takes place in January after Christmas Break. Jterm promotes learning and discovery beyond the traditional courses. Our mission is to increase opportunities of learning and exploration that not only challenge students in areas of their interest but encourage deeper faculty-student relationships through enrichment electives, educational travel, service, mission trips, and Career Experience Opportunities.

Middle School Jterm Retreats

Students in grades 6-8 enjoy a fun, three-day retreat with their respective classes. They have a chance to grow spiritually, deepen friendships, try new things, and make incredible memories.
