  Elementary School Curriculum

Our primary grades offer a broad based curriculum emphasizing skill mastering, themed experiences, cooperative learning and guided instruction. Our students learn to read primarily through a literature based reading program with a phonics component.

Mathematic concepts and skills are introduced through a variety of strategies involving hands on activities, computational skill experiences, mental math and problem solving projects. As the students progress through the primary grades we emphasize the involvement of higher level thinking skills. Our social studies and science programs promote a variety of field trips and lab experiences. Students begin their movement towards the science fair by learning the scientific method, and sharing simple science experiments with the class. Projects, reports and oral presentations help to enrich their learning experience.

Enrichment is paramount for our students to receive a well rounded curriculum. Students complement their learning with participation in physical education, music, art, computer and Spanish. The goal in our elementary program is to establish a solid foundation in academics as well as the development of personal responsibility and respect for others.

Nurturing the best in every child for sixty-five years.
