Canyonville Christian Academy’s Seminar class is an excellent college preparatory course that enriches the academic lives of our students with knowledge and experience in culture and business. The Seminar class, taught by Roger Shaffer, covers subjects such as art, classical music, current world events, and the stock market. With many of the topics, students are then given the opportunity to experience what they have learned through trips to art museums, symphonies, and plays. They are also given the opportunity to participate in the Oregon and National Stock Market Games.

Canyonville Christian Academy’s Seminar class started the school year by first competing in the Oregon Stock Market Game. The Oregon Stock Market Game occurs twice a year with fall and spring competitions. It consists of 300-400 high school teams throughout Oregon and last 10 weeks. Canyonville Christian Academy has participated in these games since 1996. Out of the 25 times this private school has competed in the Oregon Stock Market Game, it has placed first 23 times! This year was no exception. Canyonville Christian Academy’s Eric Lee from South Korea captured a win in the 2014 Fall Oregon Stock Market Game with a profit of over 135%!
