Kindergarten

At our Academy, our teachers have over 70 plus years of combined experience in a primary education setting. Their curriculum design will have your kindergarten scholar prepared to advance to 1st grade already thinking, working, and testing beyond the 1st grade level. Also at our Academy, our scholars will have instruction tailored to their individual learning needs. With of our smaller classroom sizes, our teachers are more hands-on and are able to quickly assess, diagnose, and remedy an individual scholar’s learning deficiency as well as enrich those who are learning more progressively.


We regularly take field trips, which enhance our curriculum, and we incorporate exploratory courses such as Spanish, Sign Language, Art, Dance, P.E., and Music. Our teachers also sponsor their own clubs to aide in building relationships with our scholars. Some clubs include the Rocket Readers, Dynamic Drama, Elegance in Etiquette, and Student Council and Leadership. Our school is designed to educate
the whole child so that he or she will develop into a critical thinker and problem solver on a local and
global level.

Children who participate in our kindergarten program have an opportunity to build relationships,
develop skills and learn each and every day. Children who participate in our kindergarten program will
transition more easily to elementary school and perform better.
