BCA elementary school includes grades 1-5. Our goal is to develop students who are well balanced academically, socially, physically, emotionally and spiritually through a Christ-centered curriculum. Students develop critical thinking skills and learning strategies at each grade level. Students attend Chapel services every other week regularly participating in the presentation of the Chapel services. Snack and recess times are incorporated into the daily activities, and hot lunch is available Monday through Thursday. Class sizes are small and every elementary class has a part-time assistant teacher to assist with the learning process. A part-time reading resource teacher is available for students needing additional reading support. NILD is offered to students who qualify for an additional fee.

The curriculum is both challenging and relevant emphasizing a Biblical world view in every subject. Core subjects include Bible, Language Arts and Reading, Math, Science, and Social Studies. A full compliment of enrichment classes are offered each week including music, art, computer, P.E, and Spanish. Band is offered to students beginning in the 5th grade. While students in grades 1-3 remain in their classroom for the instructional day, grades 4 and 5 change for certain subject areas. BCA draws from a variety of publishers including Houghton-Mifflin for Math, Harcourt for Science and upper elementary Social Studies, A Beka for Phonics, Language Arts, and lower grade Social Studies and Bible, and CSI for upper elementary Bible.

One of the distinctive features of our elementary school is the reading curriculum. BCA uses the Foundations and Frameworks reading program to teach reading comprehension using visual tools to help students organize their thoughts in a logical and coherent manner. This program progresses from an emphasis on phonetic development to reading fluently to developing reading comprehension with the use of visual tools to aid students in processing what they have read. These comprehension skills often carry over into other subject areas as students get older.
