School Notes
- Integrity of the curriculum must complement the integrity of the teacher. Jesus Christ should be the unifying core of a cohesive, integrated curriculum. "Christ is before all things, and in him all things hold together." (Col. 1:17) Knowledge must be coherent, or students become frustrated, confused, or even worse, fragmented in their knowledge. The curriculum must reflect the cognitive development stages of young people. For students in preschool through sixth grade, a grammar school model emphasizing reading, writing, and mathematics must be utilized. For students in grades seven through nine, a logic school emphasizing systematic study and application of logic must supplant the grammar school content and methodology as each discipline comes to life in deeper and more expansive ways. In grades ten through twelve, rhetorical skills must be developed to equip students to become integral and influential members of the greater learning community and society. Teaching methodology, processing activities, learning objectives, and assessment instruments must be chosen and designed with these distinct stages and skill sets as guideposts.

School Reviews
| 5 My kids love it there, and what I like most about it is how sweet, caring, and respectful the other students are to each other, and to adults. One day my daughter was crying when I was dropping her off ( because she had forgot to bring something) and another kid (not even in her class) sincerely came over to comforted her. And I have seen this time and time again when I volunteer at the school, that even the older kids try to comforter her and the other little ones. Even when my kids' grandmother was there for Grandparent'd Day, the kids were all so kind to her. Character is so important especially when I am hearing from friends that teach in the public school tell me about the terrible problem with bullying, lack of human decency, and exclusionary practices as young as Kindergarten. (Not to mention they taught my kids to read at a 2nd grade level, and do even multiplication in Kindergarten.) - Posted by Parent - Elizabeth H. |
