La Progresiva Presbyterian School holds a belief that a sound educational system must be founded in the truth found in the Bible and revealed in the life and works of Jesus Christ.
Furthermore, our intent is that students attain the wisdom, knowledge, and the skills necessary to serve, engage, and transform the communities in which they will live and work for Jesus Christ.
Student progress is evaluated regularly through class work, home learning, projects, quizzes and tests.
Teachers are given academic freedom in how subject matter is presented, and are encouraged to develop their own forms of assessment of the material, but are given instructional materials created by the publisher aligned with the textbook.
