The extensive high school curriculum includes approximately 100 courses organized around the core subjects of English, mathematics, science, social studies, technology skills, fine arts, foreign languages (Latin, French, and Spanish), Bible, business, and physical education. Advanced Placement and Honors classes are available in major subject areas, and we offer both health and driver education. (See Program of Studies) Daily devotions, weekly chapel services, and a spiritual emphasis week are an essential part of student life on the BCS campus.

Briarcrest offers students the option to participate in many extracurricular pursuits, including our award-winning marching band and chamber choir, studio art, and several yearly drama performances in our state-of-the-art auditorium.
