Our Academics
Bethel utilizes a variety of curriculum to assist our students in becoming well rounded in their education. BCA incorporates A Beka Book, Saxon Math, Shurley English, Alpha Omega and Manhattan Virtual Academy as well as computer programmed learning activities, Bible curriculums and other resources as needed. This wide range enables Bethel to tailor a course of study for each student to ensure a solid academic foundation preparing them for life.
