Four new classes have been added for the upcoming school year which should provide an exciting change of pace and enrichment for all who choose to enroll in one or more of these electives.
Machine Shop – The Boskind Cooperation has donated and installed a complete machine shop in the Industrial Arts building. Mr. Southard, a fully certified industrial arts teacher, will be teaching this class two days a week for a two-hour period.
Home Economics – Mrs. Clark will be offering this elective again this year, two days a week for a two-hour period.
Video Production – A husband and wife team is coming to start a low power television station in Hattiesburg and will train students to film, produce, and develop programming for 3ABN and the Hope channels. They will be involved in filming our special programs and church services. The couple running this program, along with BMA students, will be producing programming for the Gulf States Conference, and their services will be available for hire by conference churches and schools.
Mission Pilot Training (private pilot license) – Students, if you are interested in learning how to fly with the possibility of spending time with a mission pilot for a week or two in Alaska, this is the course for you! The additional cost to receive the license is about $6500, which is half of the normal cost at a regular program. This price includes ground school and all flying costs and insurance, up to and including the final test to receive the license.
