Academics Overview 2012-2013
- Individualized Instruction
Our teachers provide individualized instruction to all of our students. We value small class sizes as an opportunity to allow our teachers to provide a strong, quality Catholic education to our students.
- Enhanced technology with our iPad Lab
In addition to our computer lab, we have added an iPad lab, which is available for all students to use. Teachers sign out the lab for their students to check out an iPad. Each teacher also uses an iPad in her class as an educational tool.
- Inquiry Based Learning
Allows for student centered activities with teacher guidance through real work experiences in the classroom atmosphere. Students use critical thinking and hands-on learning using 21st century learning skills, aligned with standards.
- Rowland Reading Program
http://www.superkidsreading.org/
Integrates reading, writing, spelling and grammar.
Completely aligned to the state standards.
Encourages all children to be fluent readers.
- Science Labs
Classroom teachers are allocated time in the science lab each week. They take their homeroom to the lab for an experiment. Our junior high also conducts experiments at least once a week in our lab.
