No, while LifeWise is held during the school day, it does not interfere with students’ mandatory courses. The class schedule is set by school personnel in consultation with LifeWise representatives. Classes are held during non-core academic periods, such as during lunch or electives.
LifeWise classes focus on core themes of the Bible, what we refer to as the “main and plain things” of Scripture, with emphasis on the gospel of Jesus Christ. Each lesson reviews a Bible passage as well as a “Living LifeWise” character trait, such as respect, love or kindness.
LifeWise is complementary to before and after-school programs. The primary distinctive feature of LifeWise is that it operates during the school day, thereby engaging with all students whose parents have given permission for them to attend.
Enrollment for students in grades 1 through 4 is currently open. Classes for 3rd and 4th grades, as well as the High Achievers Program (HAP), will commence on January 21, 2026.
On January 20, 2026, we hold our first two 1st grade classes at Georgetown Elementary and add 3rd and 4th grade classes at Greenville. In March 2026 we will launch two classes at S. Ellen Jones elementary and add two more classes at Georgetown. In September 2026 we will launch in our fourth school which is to be determined. This rollout plan will continue until all Floyd County public school children have the option to attend a LifeWise Academy class.
