Rooted in biblical teachings, the curriculum at Bangor Christian Schools provides a well-rounded education that nurtures students' academic growth as well as their spiritual development. Core subjects such as Bible study, reading, language arts, mathematics, social studies, and science form the foundation of the program, carefully designed to instill Christian values while fostering critical thinking and mastery of essential skills. Complemented by enriching offerings like physical education, art, and music, the comprehensive course of study prepares students to excel academically and emerge as morally grounded individuals.
 

Bible

Bible is graded as an academic subject.  The grade is based upon assessment of memorization of scripture, concepts of lessons, and participation in the class.  
 

Reading

Reading is the foundational course in the elementary grades and is based upon an approach which incorporates phonics and a variety of reading strategies designed to improve both fluency and comprehension. Students are exposed to a variety of instructional texts and literature which support our Christian values.
 

Language Arts

The language arts curriculum includes grammar, spelling, penmanship, study skills, and the writing process. Teachers integrate materials in each of the areas to promote students’ development of effective communication skills.
 

Mathematics

Our curriculum includes instruction in math concepts, computation, and problem solving, using hands-on lessons and providing practice to develop automaticity in math facts.  
 

Social Studies

Patriotism is an integral part of the social studies curriculum in each grade. History and geography are taught from a Biblical perspective.  United States History is taught each year through Grade 4, Maine history is also a focus in grade four, and Old world history and geography are taught in grade five.  
 

Science

Science is taught in all grades.  The materials used for instruction have been selected for their emphasis on creation.  Health is integrated into the science curriculum in all grade levels.
