Elementary Programs
Our Elementary programs are housed in the elementary building and are organized into grade-level teams that work closely together. This team approach allows teachers to collaborate, support students well, and help ensure smooth transitions as children grow and move through the program. Throughout the Elementary years, learning is rooted in our Christian faith as students develop character, grow in a biblical worldview, and learn to think, act, learn, serve, and work together in ways that honor Christ.
Lower Elementary (Kindergarten–Grade 2) focuses on building a strong foundation for learning. Through engaging curricula and hands-on experiences, students develop early literacy and math skills while growing in curiosity, confidence, and a love of learning.
In Upper Elementary (Grades 3–4), students begin the important shift from learning to read to reading to learn. They take the next steps as young learners, including beginning cursive writing, developing stronger study habits, and building independence in their academic work.
Our Intermediate Program (Grades 5–6) helps students prepare intentionally for Junior High. Students still have a homeroom teacher, but they also begin practicing a modified form of shared teaching. At this level, instruction is departmentalized with a Language Arts program and a Math & Science program, helping students grow in responsibility while gradually transitioning toward a secondary school structure.
