From the teachers:

As educators, we believe in preparing our students to become life-long learners and responsible citizens. This entails providing the information, skills, and encouragement our children need to succeed. Each classroom provides a safe and caring environment where students can feel comfortable taking risks and becoming problem solvers. Students learn the importance of working cooperatively as well as becoming more independent. Emphasis is placed on the development of positive values, choices, and attitudes.

Academic milestones are reached in third grade. These include adding and subtracting larger numbers, learning the multiplication and division facts, as well as paragraph and cursive writing. In reading, emphasis is placed on fluency and comprehension. We also study the environment and learn about our community and its government.

Students learn the importance of personal responsibility as they transition to become more independent learners and responsible citizens.
