Upper Elementary
The academic program in the upper
elementary grades (grades 3, 4, and 5) is more challenging and demanding than
the lower elementary grades as students prepare to enter middle school. Using
research based curriculum, emphasis is placed on sharpening critical thinking
and problem-solving skills while developing specific knowledge. The program
helps students to establish a solid foundation of learning in the core
subjects.
The students are able to explore
their talents, both academically and socially, through music, art, and physical
education. Students are also encouraged to participate in age-appropriate
extra-curricular activities such as choir, chess, cheerleading, band, ballet,
altar service, sports, scouts, student council, quiz bowl, and geography and
spelling bees.
