Middle School – Grades 6 through 8

Dedicated teachers

“I attended Temple Academy from kindergarten through high school graduation in 2008. I believe, to a great degree, I was prepared to complete one of the most prestigious engineering programs in the country because of the dedication of my teachers at Temple. I am grateful for the effort, time, and prayer that the faculty invested in me while I was at the Academy.”

Preparation for my future

“At Temple, our teachers worked hard to prepare us for what lay ahead. Many of the classes I took while at the Academy were as rigorous as those I later took in college, so I already had a basic understanding of subject matter and was better able to handle college-level academics.”

Grateful for influence

As alumni, my wife and I are both grateful for the influence Temple Academy has had on our lives. I have watched two brothers, three sisters-in-law, and now my own daughter grow up and graduate under the influence of the same school. The Lord truly blessed our family when He led us to Temple.

Bible-based curriculum

“I am grateful for the eternal investment my parents made to send me and my sisters to Temple Academy.  The influence of my teachers and emphasis of a Bible-based curriculum brought me to an awareness of God’s presence and my personal accountability to Him.”

Shared faith

“I have the opportunity to work with outstanding students and faculty in the College of Education at Lipscomb University. I can share my passion for teaching and learning – focusing on more than academics. While at Temple, our teachers went out of their way to assist students in their learning and shared their faith with us. I will always be grateful to them and want to model their examples with my graduate students.”

Cultivating emerging gifts and interests

This is a time of enormous change when your child really begins to come into their own. He discovers what he is passionate about and what some of his God-given gifts may be. She starts to understand who she is and what she should stand for. A more challenging curriculum will help you prepare them for all that is ahead while encouraging them to become more involved with their classmates. Middle school extends beyond the classroom with student-led chapels, community service projects, and competitive sports programs.

Our unique “park system” encourages camaraderie, fosters a spirit of competition, and provides positive reinforcement that is age appropriate for middle school students.

  • Master core subjects and skills while learning to reason biblically.
  • Explore and develop their individually God-given gifts.
  • Build confidence in Scripture through apologetics-based Bible instruction.
  • Establish healthy relationships with peers, teachers, and coaches.
  • Develop essential character qualities for success in high school and life beyond – self-discipline, initiative, teamwork, and compassion for others.
