Primary School Program- Kindergarten through 4th Grade
Our Primary School program offers students the opportunity to learn in a hands- on setting with the focus not only on their academic achievement, but also on providing a nurturing environment aimed at developing the whole child. Students learn through play, in collaborative, groups, and through service projects. Our early literacy and numeracy programs focus on recognizing and developing the necessary skills they need to become strong readers and mathematicians. All Primary students are connected with an older "Bulldog Buddy" who they will develop a relationship with over the year. These older students offer our younger students an excellent model, as they grow in faith and community, in a safe learning environment. (behavior, respect, and discipline).
