All elementary students are assessed annually using a nationally normed standardized test (NWEA-MAP- Measure of Academic Progress) as well as periodically with the Fountas Benchmark Assessment, which measures reading comprehension and fluency. Teachers employ a combination of small and whole group instruction in reading and math subject areas, using guided reading and individual student conferences to both measure and promote learning growth. All elementary students take physical education every day. Additionally, all enjoy music, computer, library, Spanish and art once weekly. Chapel occurs weekly and is grouped by grade level. Depending upon the grade level, off-site field trips may occur several times per year. Younger student may also be grouped with upper elementary students as Book Buddies or Puzzle Pals, thus affording our older students the opportunity to begin serving younger students within the school community.
