Chapel ā every other week
Forum/Dialogue – Every other week, students attend Forum. Designed to sharpen critical thinking skills and provoke meaningful dialogue, high school students are exposed to provocative, often culturally relevant, topics such as: the fairness of minimum wage, NC House Bill 2, and whether or not we can know if we are living in a computer simulation. After attending Forum, students return to class under a guided facilitator to debate these topics (dialogue) through the lenses of both truth and faith. Lively discussion always ensues!
Electives
One of the annual requirements for course enrollment at 91“«Ć½ Academy is that every student must take the equivalent of two full credits of Fine Arts/Electives courses. At least one full credit must be from the Fine Arts list. A single credit can be earned by taking a full-year course or two-semester courses.
Some courses are limited to certain grade levels/genders. During registration, students will be asked to select their top choices and several alternate choices. New electives are added in some years and some electives are given rest for a season and brought back in later years.
