Text Books

The King's Academy provides necessary textbooks. Students should take good care of their textbooks so they can  return them in good condition. Students will be asked to pay for unnecessary damage or loss.

 

The use of Scripture in the classroom is a fundamental, integral part of the education process at The King's Academy.  For this reason King's Academy recognizes the importance not only of the use of Scripture but that it also selects a version that has those qualities which enhance the education process.

 

There are several Bible translations which are widely accepted by conservative, evangelical scholars as quality works for study.  Each translation has strengths and weaknesses.  However, to avoid confusion in the classroom, it is necessary to select a translation for school wide use.

 

TKA recognizes the New International Version as the translation normally used in the classroom for study, quotation and memorization.  This decision was made for several reasons:

  • the modern language, grammar, syntax, and style

  • the ease of reading

  • the widely accepted use of the NIV

The strengths of the NIV may be viewed by some as a weakness and another translation preferred.  In those cases the parents may request in writing an exception for use of another translation by their child for memorization.

 

Graduation Requirements

Each King's Academy student is required to take Bible for each semester he/she attends King's.  The only exception to this program would be in the case of a transfer student from a non-Christian school who would be expected to complete one credit in Bible for each semester he attends King's Academy.

The state of Indiana requires a minimum of 40 credits to graduate from high school.  It should be carefully noted that TKA expects that its students shall do more than simply meet the minimum requirements for graduation.  All students are expected to carry a load of seven classes daily.  However, it is recognized that some students may find it difficult carrying a full seven hour class load and need to drop a course in order to pick up a study hall. The King’s Academy is a school that values the parents primary role in educating their children and will heavily consider their input in deciding their students schedule.  A student who spends all four high school years at TKA would normally have 48 to 52 credits upon graduation.  Credits can be earned only if a grade of “D-” or higher is earned.
