ACADEMICS

Elementary School Curriculum

Our Approach

Students in elementary school engage in a strong and well-rounded curriculum that builds a solid academic foundation while integrating a biblical worldview. Each subject is designed to help students see God’s design in mathematics, language, science, and social studies, fostering both knowledge and character development. Through engaging lessons, hands-on learning, and critical thinking, students grow in their understanding of core subjects while applying biblical principles to their studies. Each grade builds on the previous one, increasing academic rigor and critical thinking while reinforcing a biblical worldview. This approach equips students with the skills and values needed to succeed academically and develop a Christ-centered perspective of the world around them.

  • Further phonics and sight word review to enhance reading comprehension.

  • An introduction to cultural differences and land formations in social studies.


  • Interactive science classes with hands-on experiments that highlight the wonders of creation, as students learn they are "fearfully and wonderfully made" (Psalm 139:14).

  • Cursive writing skills that promote good writing habits and neatness.
