There are many varied programs offered to the students at Country Place Elementary to enhance learning and provide extracurricular activities.

Accelerated Reader Accelerated Reader is a program to motivate students to become active readers while increasing their reading skills.
Students begin by reading a book on their independent reading level.
They can find these listed in indexes in each classroom, and color coded in our school library. After they finish reading their book, they choose the book test from the database on our computer server. A record is kept of their successes in reading, and they can accumulate points toward specific classroom goals. As students maintain success on a particular level, they are challenged to set goals for reading books that are increasingly more difficult. We adopted this program in 1996 after reading positive reviews of it from several schools who had increased their reading achievement scores by using it.
