Quest Class: Elective Classes for Grades Seven and Eight

Luke & Guitar.jpgBethany students in grades seven and eight enjoy elective classes called 'Quest Classes' which are offered each quarter.  Every seventh and eighth grader chooses an elective class which meets several times each week and changes quarterly, giving students the opportunity to participate in different classes over the course of the year. 

 Classes are comprised of both seventh and eighth graders and carry academic weight.  Instructors come from the Bethany faculty, the Sisters, outside professionals, and parents.  Our goal is to offer to our upper school students the opportunity to experience and investigate topics which are appealing to them, yet not typically offered in a school setting, while they get to                                                                                 know each other better in these multi-level classes.
