Quarterly Evaluations

Process of Evaluation

One of the school’s purposes is to provide preparation for ministry in the Church. Spiritual, behavioral and academic progress are just a few important components, among many, of a student’s entire process of growing to a mature future community and church leader.

Therefore, at the middle and end of every quarter, the faculty, along with the student supervisory staff, meets to discuss every student’s progress. These discussions attempt to measure the student’s success in fulfilling the school’s objectives and the student profile, both academically and behaviorally. Prior to the meeting, the Academic Dean compiles a list of names of those students who are academically deficient (receiving a D or F) in their classes. Recommendations for assistance for the student may be made at this time. Parents will be notified about any area of concern brought forward at these meetings.

The fourth quarter evaluation also addresses the question of the student’s return for the next year. This judgment is made on an individual’s overall growth during the past year. A student whose behavior and academics show reasonable progress will be invited to return.
