In the Pre-School Room, children are introduced to a new theme each month. The Bible curriculum in this room includes stories, songs and crafts. Children have the opportunity to work in different centers throughout the day including blocks, lacing cards, sorting games, puzzles, play-dough etc.
The K-4 Room teachers work with the children toward the goal of having them meet milestones that will help them be successful in the K-4 program.
Each child has an assigned homeroom - The Lab or the Think Tank - where they start the day. Since the K-4 program is either full day or half day, the afternoon program is not a repeat of the morning.
The morning program includes arts and crafts, practical life, computers, circle time, geography science, Bible, phonics, snack, small and large motor skill activities, lunch outdoor time, gym music, language development, stories and once a week special with The Music Lady.
The afternoon program includes math, health, character building, handwriting, arts and crafts, Bible, community awareness, snack, computers, outdoor time, gym, language development, stories, music and special music once a week with The Story Book Lady.
