All students have a half-hour lunch period and a fifteen minute recess each day. Curriculum Students at West Creek Hills Elementary School and East Pennsboro Elementary School follow the same curriculum. Social studies, language arts, science, health, physical education, art, music, library, and computer instruction are all a part of the curriculum. Instrumental lessons are begun in fourth grade. There are four nine-week marking periods during the school year.
Students receive report cards at the end of each nine-week period.
Individual parent-teacher conferences are scheduled for all students to discuss academic progress. At all grade levels, there is an emphasis on literature-based reading instruction in addition to the regular language arts series. Older students are using classroom sets of classic children's literature. A very active and involved PTO makes available a variety of assembly programs for students at each grade level. In addition, the PTO has purchased equipment such as TVs, VCRs, computers, projectors, and tape recorders for classroom use.
