Elementary Program
A rigorous and supportive program of instruction for students in kindergarten through grade six has been established. Classrooms are organized to meet the instructional needs of children, and various methods and materials are utilized to achieve success.
The early years of school are critical, so students in the primary grades (pre-kindergarten through grade three) participate in an academic program designed to meet the needs of young children. They learn to read, express their thoughts through writing and critical thinking, and work with numbers and mathematical operations. Children are also engaged in inquiry-based thinking through science and social studies. Encore classes in art, music, physical education, STEAM, and computer technology enable students to access a well-rounded education.
Students in the upper elementary grades (four, five, and six) learn to apply these basic skills as they read to learn, write to communicate, use numbers to solve problems, and think critically in all areas of the curriculum including technology, the arts, physical education, and the use of the library.
