secondary program

The secondary program at Granger Christian Schools is a college preparatory program with a focus on traditional academic excellence as well as character and spiritual development.  There are over 123 students enrolled in seventh through twelfth grades for the 2006-2007 school year. 

In addition to a strong academic curriculum, our students may participate in PE, Art, Vocal and Instrumental Music, Computer, Drama, and Yearbook.  Students also have the opportunity to attend regional, state, and national academic competitions in categories including math, creative writing, science, spelling, art, and music.   

We also feel that athletics play an important part in the lives of many of our students.  At the present time, students may participate in soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, ane cheerleading.

We offer two diploma options to our graduating seniors.  The General Prepatory Diploma requires 44 credits while the College Prepatory Diploma requires a minimum of 48 credits.  Credits are earned on a semester basis.  In addition to the minimum credit requirement, specific classes are also required in math and science.  Following are the minimum credit and course requirements for each diploma:
