Grade Programs

We strive to provide our students with the following:

​

  • Teaching each child through a play-centered program that fosters the God-given talents of each child.

  • Developing the whole child spiritually, physically, emotionally, and academically with age-appropriate resources.

  • Providing opportunities for cooperative play, learning, and prayer.

  • Creating a safe, loving, and supportive environment to instill a love of learning that will last a lifetime.

  • Instructing the readiness skills and knowledge necessary for a smooth transition into the primary grades, emphasizing religion, reading, and math.

  • Staffing the Early Childhood Program with dedicated professionals that will love and nurture every individual child.

​

Primary Program    {Grades 1-2}

​

  • Creating an environment to teach and model Gospel values that Jesus taught: faith in God, prayer and service, love and respect for others, compassion, responsibility, stewardship, and a passion for learning.

  • Instilling the values and character traits that emulate respect and love for God, themselves, and others.

  • Developing the whole child, giving them the essential foundations in their faith, learning, social interactions, and self-esteem.
