Encouraging Students to Participate Outside the Classroom

We prepare students to succeed in college and impact the world for Christ.

The Upper School faculty are passionate about investing in the lives of students. Teachers develop meaningful relationships with their students and know them as individuals. Based on those relationships, teachers challenge students to strive for high academic and personal standards.

The life lessons and leadership skills students acquire through co-curricular activities - those programs take place primarily outside of classrooms - are significant factors in their personal development. We encourage students to take an active role in establishing new activities commensurate with their interests.

A comprehensive college guidance program, Compass, helps students increase their self-awareness to identify colleges that will prove to be a good match for them. Mt. Bethel graduates go into the world confident and well prepared to use their God-given talents to impact the world for Christ in whatever endeavors they pursue.

All seniors complete a thesis project which is the capstone of the MBCA academic program. The thesis work culminates a 20-minute oral presentation of the student's argument before a board of judges and a community audience, followed by a 15-minute defense as the student answers questions from the judges.

At Mt. Bethel Christian Academy, we encourage students to participate outside the classroom in athletics, arts, service opportunities, mission trips, and leadership development.

US 101 - Rescheduled Sep 5th
8/27/2025

We have an important update regarding our upcoming US 101 – Upper School & Beyond event. Originally planned for this Friday, the day before the long weekend, we’ve received feedback that many of you may be traveling and unable to attend.

In an effort to respect your time and give all of our families the opportunity to participate, we are rescheduling US 101 to take place as part of our Upper School Open House on Friday, September 5. Rather than holding two separate events on different dates, we have decided that integrating Upper School 101 with our Open House will allow us to be mindful of your time while still providing the most comprehensive picture of the Upper School journey. This will allow you to hear directly from our high school students and recent graduates, ask questions, and gain valuable insight into the Upper School experience and beyond.

We will be sending additional details soon regarding the Open House schedule and how US 101 will be included in the itinerary. For now, we encourage you to mark 8:30 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. on Friday, September 5 on your calendar. If you already plan to attend, you can RSVP at this link, and additional details will follow in another email. We look forward to seeing you there!
