Elementary Division
Grades 1 through 6 make up the elementary division of South Merrimack Christian Academy. Class is in session five days a week from 8am-3pm and aims to prepare students for the secondary level. We use a combination of A Beka and Bob Jones materials, as we find this material best suited to our high academic standards and best reflective of our biblical beliefs. (SMCA's Curriculum Map)
