Points of Pride
¨
Choice Time that is offered during noon
recess. In addition to going outside to play on the playground, children
can experience adult led creative activities after they enjoy their lunch.
¨
Family nights for Math and Reading. 1st - 5th grade students enjoy playing math
and reading games with their family members. When they leave, the students are
given bags with additional learning tools including a packet containing game
directions for parents.
¨
Science Share/Community Night. This is a partnership formed between community
organizations and our school personnel. Individual and classroom
experiments are on display in the gymnasium. Throughout the halls, we have over
35 groups and organizations displaying what they have to offer children and
parents in our community.
¨
Reading Buddies. This activity is held during the school day when young readers
are paired with older readers to enjoy literature together. Friendships are
formed, leadership is developed, reading skills are enhanced, and children take
delight in enjoying books together.
¨
Pride in the diversity that we offer in academics. Students are provided with
extra support in small groups, one-on-one assistance, and individualized
instruction. We also present an accelerated math and reading program. Teachers
offer ability grouping in reading and math and some teachers team teach various
subjects according to their own strengths.
