Curriculum Profile
We utilize the ABEKA curriculum in our K-3, K-4, Kindergarten and first grade programs. The ABEKA curriculum can be researched online at www.ABEKA.com. ABEKA is a Christian based curriculum founded over 30 years ago to provide Christian schools witha Christian tool of training children in Bible, Christian character, language, and traditional subject matter.
Our students have the following subjects; math, language, reading, science, social studies, bible, music, and outside activities.
In utilizing the ABEKA curriculum and small calss ratio's, we are able to offer a quality education that keeps our students on average 1 or/ 2 years ahead of the neighboring programs. Students receive progress and report cards four times during the course of the year. Parent/Teacher confrences are scheduled twice a year, however parents may request to meet with a teacher anytime during the school year. Our Kindergarten students enjoy a formal cap and gown graduation in the spring.
