Aligned with Our Conference Schools

We’re excited to share that Atonement is now aligned in Science instruction with other schools in our WLHS Conference. This means our students are exploring the same key scientific concepts at the same grade levels as their peers across the area. Why is this important? It ensures students develop strong inquiry skills, learn to think critically about the world around them, and are well-prepared for high school science—all while recognizing God’s hand in creation and using their knowledge to serve Him and others.
