Parallel block scheduling with extension centers allows us to meet the identified needs of each child by providing small group uninterrupted instruction in language arts and mathematics. Students in grades one through five work in small groups at their own skill levels for the majority of the day. Students in grades three through five are taught science objectives in specially equipped science centers. Ongoing, meaningful assessment of each student provides multiple opportunities for children to demonstrate mastery of instructional objectives. Close communication with parents through quarterly curriculum overviews, interim reports, and progress reports, as well as regular parent conferences, ensures that teachers and parents work together to meet the unique needs of each child.
All classrooms have computer stations which are used by students throughout the day.
In addition, a Technology Lab, equipped with thirty PowerMacintosh G3 computers, provides space for whole group technology instruction. The staff of Sleepy Hollow Elementary School is dedicated to the belief that all children will succeed if given the necessary support and encouragement.
