Spiritual Development
Project Based Learning at Jesse Remington High School offers a diverse group of hands-on projects that complement the core curriculum. This model of learning combines traditional content learning with experiential learning through the use of a carefully designed student project.
Spiritual Development at JRHS
As a non-denominational school, we welcome students from a wide range of Christian traditions.
​
Four years of Bible Class
Our Bible classes are taught by Matt Hannan, MDiv. Freshmen and Sophomores complete surveys of the Old and New Testaments, while Juniors and Seniors study Christian literature to explore the Christian worldview and compare it with various secular and religious perspectives. Students learn to apply Scripture to their daily lives and engage in apologetics to deepen and defend their faith. ​
​
Daily Devotions
At the beginning of first period, each class begins with a ten-minute devotion​.
​​​
Koinonia
Koinonia is the Greek word for “gathering,” and each Wednesday morning our students come together to share a prepared breakfast and meet in small-group Bible study groups. Group leaders unpack the day’s Scripture passage for the students and the group considers how the message applies to their lives today and in the future. This year we are journeying through the Gospel of John.
​​​​
Chapel
We begin each Friday morning with Chapel. The student Worship Team leads in prayer and singing, and a guest-pastor from a local congregation provides a spiritual message.
​​​
Fall Mountain Retreat
In mid-September, our student body heads to the White Mountains for a three-day retreat filled with games, hiking, adventure, and worship. The focus of the retreat is to establish spiritual goals for the year and strengthen relationships in our community.
​​​
Mission Trips
Every April, students travel near and far on a mission trip to serve others in a variety of ways. ​​​
​
Teachers as Mentors
Our teachers play an important role in our students' time here. ​
We decided on Jesse because it is a Christian school, and we’ve discovered it is more than what we had prayed for and hoped. It’s a community truly built on biblical values. Staff and teachers pour into their students encouraging and equipping them as they work to reach challenging academic and life goals. We’ve discovered students mentor, support, and share generously with one another in order that everyone can succeed in their academics, on their respective sports teams, or reach the top of a 4,000-footer together, and discover the deep and multi-layered meanings at the heart of scripture. At Jesse, our daughter has grown significantly in her leadership skills, she started out quite shy and would dismiss opportunities to stand and lead or share her spiritual thoughts with others. Today she’s developed confidence in her faith and even leads her peers in scripture readings, evangelizing is one of her favorite classes! And because of her academic and leadership achievements, she’s received two generous academic college scholarships - Jesse prepares their students to be effective leaders for Jesus, such a blessing.​
