At WCS we use the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills and all classes are taught from a Christian perspective. One advantage we have over public schools is that we can teach the subject matter of the curriculum, not to a state mandated test like TAKS. With our small class sizes and highly qualified teachers, we are able to enhance the curriculum and move farther and faster than most programs. Our enhanced curriculum assures we are encouraging, challenging and enriching each individual student. The Christian aspect of our curriculum assures that we are educating the whole child.
