SPIRITUAL LIFE
While Academy students come from many different faith backgrounds and world religions, faculty and staff are committed to teaching and modeling a Biblical worldview.
​
While we do not force students to embrace the Truth of Scripture, we do regularly ask students to consider their personal spiritual lives.
​
Christian students who enroll will find tremendous support for their faith and practice.
SERVICE OPPORTUNITIES
​
Students volunteer at school, the local church and nursing home, as well as in other communities.
Service projects are sometimes incorporated into class assignments. Students with a heart to serve will find numerous opportunities.
CHURCH ATTENDANCE
Boarding students attend church and Sunday school each week, most often at the Houghton Wesleyan Church.
The Houghton Wesleyan Church also offers a large and active youth group with regular meetings on Wednesday evenings.
WORSHIP TEAM
Interested students may audition and
apply for a spot on our Worship Team.
​
Worship Team practices weekly and often leads worship in chapel. Team members include vocalists and instrumentalists.
Chapel
​
Chapel is a corporate worship service for the students, staff and faculty of the Academy. Meeting once a week, the format for Chapel varies and may include a message from a speaker, a video or drama presentation or a visiting musical group.
​
Music during Chapel is led by students who participate on the Worship Team. A traditional highlight of each year is the final Chapel of the school year, which is entirely organized and led by the senior class.
