Elementary Division Trinitys elementary division offers classes in grades one through five. Generally, there are two classes at each grade level. With the exception of first grade, the teachers at a given level work together as a team in order to provide the best instruction for the total group. Teachers may exchange students for reading and mathematics instruction as well as science and social studies instruction. One of the greatest strengths of the elementary school is the continuity of the curriculum throughout the grades.
Every effort is made to choose curriculum materials that are both challenging and stimulating.
Teachers are encouraged to be creative in their approach and methods and to work to develop a multisensory approach to teaching in their classrooms. Each classroom teachers enjoys the flexibility of choosing those methods that best suit the needs of his or her students. Opportunities are provided to develop strong study skills. Close communication between home and school is achieved in a number of ways. Academic progress is reported through class work that is sent home weekly, report cards that are sent home four times a year, parent conferences which are scheduled twice a year, and homework notebooks which are kept daily.
