Our kindergarten program is designed to develop each child academically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually. The full-day program features many different programmatic pieces, including: foreign language, science, music, art, library, computers, dance and movement, physical education, and renewal time. Kindergarten students also have fourth grade “Big Buddies” and attend Chapel. The Tab;e Top and Extended School Program (ESP) are also be available to kindergarten students.
Language Arts in kindergarten includes daily work in phonics, guided reading instruction, and writing. The math program utilizes a manipulative-based, problem-solving approach. Kindergarten students are exposed to an environment rich with learning opportunities throughout the school day.
The classrooms feature space for large and small group activities, quiet reading corners, and lots of space for hands-on exploration. The classroom design also gives teachers the ability to mix classes for special activities, including cooking. Outside the classroom, a special playground has been developed for the sole use by our kindergarten students. The playground includes climbing equipment, sand and water play and equipment to encourage imaginary play.
