Language includes reading, phonetics, spelling, vocabulary, grammar and handwriting. Attention to literature is emphasized in the classroom. Reading is an essential part of all areas of the curriculum. Our mathematics program provides the framework for a strong understanding of concepts. Manipulative materials are used to enhance the child's grasp of mathematics and to illustrate practical applications.
Students have an opportunity to problem solve, and to work on their own at their own level.
In addition to this core curriculum, the school offers weekly instruction in French, Music, Art, Computer Science, and Physical Education. At all levels the child moves from concrete experiences to abstract concepts. Children work independently, in pairs and in small or large groups, depending on the learning experiences and the task at hand. Our goal is to help each child develop personal responsibility toward behavior and learning, paving the way for successful academic achievement, and life as a responsible adult.
