There are times that we are looking to have more teachers for our classrooms, and we have a list of parents who are interested in substituting. Please contact rae@branchchristianacademy.com if you would like to see what openings that we have. The teacher application can be found here

Q:

A:

Each day, we start with worship. This will last for approximately 30 minutes.

Kindergarten through 5th grade stays on the same schedule with each other, so that students can move up or down as needed, (ex: every class has math at 9 am, etc.).

From 7th grade and up, students rotate between classes/teachers. We have math teachers, English teachers, etc. The classes for this age group will be about 50-55 minutes per day. Students are given the opportunity to have a snack at 10 am. The older grades work through this snack time and do not take a break.

Lunch will be staggered with different start and end times, followed by recess. Each age group will have 1 hour for lunch and recess. 

The day runs from 8:15-2:45

Q:

A:

Branch is a drop off program. On Monday through Wednesday, we will teach the kids and give assignments for Thursday and Friday. Those are required and need to be turned in on Monday.  You will have to help your child complete these, you are the teacher on Thursday and Friday, but they should have what they need to complete the work. Most of the high school teachers also provide lots of notes to help the student on those days. They can sign up for Thursday classes and there will be homework opportunities on that day!

Q:

A:

At Concord

Students may arrive at 8:00 am for the regular co-op day. We will open at 7:00am, only if you notify us that you need before hours care. Pickup ends at 2:55. If you need care after this time, we will be available until 5:00pm. Before and after hours care needs to be arranged 1 week in advance, and is $5 per hour per student. This needs to be paid, in cash, to the adult in charge of before and after hours care.

Q:

A:

Our goal for school is to have a fun-filled learning experience. We are a close-knit group that does a lot of life together! We will have things that we have to work through together, and we want to honor God in all that we do. We will not tolerate gossiping, bullying, or complaining. We expect this from the parents, also!  We want to teach them about mutual honor and respect. We ask that you, as the parents, help us teach the kids to turn problems over to the Lord first, and then work it through with the person, in love. If this does not work, we ask that you bring the problem to leadership. Remember, we can’t deal with issues that we don’t know about! Help us help you! This is a learning process for all of us, and we appreciate your willingness to walk with us through this. 

We have a zero-tolerance for bullying, name-calling, and physical altercations. We also do not tolerate students disrupting the learning environment. It is possible that you will be called to pick up your student if one of these situations arises. If a student brings or participates in an activity that includes, but not limited to, cigarettes/vaping, alcohol, or drug activity, they will be expelled. These activities are completely unacceptable. 

Q:

A:

Each grade has a curriculum fee, yearly, at the beginning of the year. This is a non-refundable fee. You can find the fees when you click on "Class Registration" from the home page. 

There is a once a year nonrefundable registration fee, per student, $500 for the first child and $300 for each additional. In order to hold your spot you will need to pay 33% of the registration fee. 

Membership fees 

Per Student

$4500 per year, broken up into 10 equal payments for private school students

$3600 per year, broken up into 10 equal payments for home study students

THESE FEES ARE NON REFUNDABLE 

Lunch is $5 per lunch ordered.  There is also a whole year option to purchase lunches, and the cost is $450 per person. Once you sign up for lunches, there are no refunds or transfers to other days. Because we have to purchase the food ahead of time, payment is required upon sign up.

There will be field trips throughout the year, and additional fees will be the responsiblity of each family, if you desire to go.

We do have fund raising opportunities throughout the school year, and some of those can be applied to some of these fees
