Pre-K
Our Pre-K curriculum is designed with every aspect of a child's development in mind. Students are active participants in developing their phonemic awareness skills whether it
is by listening to their teacher read or practicing their letter sounds by hearing jingles and singing along. While exploring their enviornment they learn shapes, sizes, and enjoy
the pleasure of counting and sorting all in the context of a nurturing and loving classroom with teachers who model their Christian faith.
Kindergarten
Our Kindergarten curriculum is carefully structured and designed to capitalize on young minds whose natural curiosity prepares them with a readiness to learn, learn, learn! Just
the right balance of structure and exploration is provided throughtout the day allowing for this age child to reach his or her maximum potential in all areas of development.
First Grade
Our first grade curriculum builds on the solid foundation of phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary development, rich literature read by the teacher, and takes it to the next
level--each child reading at his or her determined level with close checks on fluency and comprehension. Math concepts are taught in the context of "hand-on" manipulatives while
educational games and math workshops make learning fun!
Second Grade
This year continues to build upon the sequence of lessons which have been taught in previous grades. Careful planning and collaboration with other teachers ensure that the interests,
skills and abilities of students are met with a curriculum that is solid and challenging.
Third Grade
The saying goes like this, "Third graders go from learning to read to reading to learn." This curriculum challenges students to continue learning in an enviornment that fosters
critical thinking along with core knowledge. Laptops and Smartboards allow for interactive opportunities when learning or practicing skills.
Fourth Grade
Students in fourth grade grow in their love for learning through experiential field trips, discussions in the classroom, jumpstart homework sessions, and after school programs
while forming stronger relationships with their classmates and teachers. These students are serious learners for life!
Fifth Grade
Adding to the foundational learning of earlier grades, this curriculum encompasses a rich content in every subject area from math to reading, from history to science, from art
to music, from Spanish to physical education, and from computer to library. These students, being the "leaders" of the lower school, are charged with various leadership responsibilities
which enhance character development and bring life to part of our mission statement ..."putting others ahead of self."
