Ancillary
What we provide in addition to the curriculum.
In Chapel, we teach our little ones to keep the Lord in their hearts. Bible stories are presented in an engaging way, so as to draw the students in and help them find the real value. They are encouraged to both ask and answer questions regarding the moral of each story to develop their thinking powers, and we reinforce the idea of heartfelt praise through prayer and joyful song.
Our computer lab is mobile providing access for teachers to incorporate technology into everyday classroom activities. Learning basic computer skills, early keyboarding in conjunction with reading, science, spelling, and math. In addition to laptops, we also have a classroom set of tablets available for students to do research and learning games.
In the library, we provide a wide range of books to instill an early love of reading, and each year we celebrate National Literacy Month with a school-wide reading contest. Not only developing a child’s imagination, but most age-appropriate books reinforce the lessons they’re already learning in class including the alphabet, numbers, shapes, colors, vegetables, animals, body parts, and activities in fun and exciting ways.
We know a child’s development thrives with early exposure to music and movement. While music is all around us in our classrooms throughout each day, our dedicated music class allows students to begin learning instruments, tonal and rhythm patterns, and a variety of songs.
Art class gives students a chance to expand their creativity and experience a variety of mediums and techniques. Beyond the basic paper and crayons, they’re also introduced to sculpting and clays, gluing and paper-mâché, paint and blending, and a variety of other crafts.
Physical fitness fosters growth and development. Through running, jumping, throwing, catching, and a myriad of other activities, children build and maintain healthy bones, muscles, and joints. Through its positive effect on mental health, it increases our students’ capacity for learning through the development of social, emotional, and cognitive skills.
