Bible Center School Announces Expansion to High School, Welcoming First Freshman Class in Fall 2026
Education is a vital part of our investment in the next generation, both as a ministry and as a state. We are so grateful to those who have chosen to give their lives to investing in the next generation through education in West Virginia, and we are honored and privileged to have a role in that endeavor. We are excited to continue to contribute by providing a high-level academic environment, founded on a biblical worldview, which teaches students that they are loved and designed with a purpose. For West Virginia to flourish, our young people must flourish.
Equipping West Virginia Students to Flourish
Bible Center School is thrilled to announce a significant milestone in its history—expanding to include high school grades. Beginning in the fall of 2026, Bible Center School will welcome its first class of 9th-grade students, with plans to add a grade level each year until fully expanding through 12th grade.
As West Virginia looks toward the future of education, Bible Center School remains committed to equipping students with the knowledge, values, and opportunities they need to flourish.
The school invites the community to join in this exciting journey as they continue to expand and invest in the next generation.
