Building Character, Cultivating Minds in Lower School

As students progress into our K-5 program, they enter an environment designed to develop the whole child—heart, mind, and spirit. Our lower school builds upon the early foundations established in Pre-K, challenging students academically while nurturing their character and faith development.
Our carefully chosen curriculum reflects our commitment to academic excellence, including our recently adopted mathematics program that develops critical-thinking skills and problem-solving abilities. Students engage in hands-on science experiments, develop strong literacy skills through our comprehensive language arts program, and explore history through a biblical worldview.
The lower school years are crucial for developing study habits, critical thinking skills, and learning strategies to serve students throughout their academic journey. Our teachers create classroom environments that encourage questions, celebrate effort, and foster a growth mindset. Through our Culture in Action Awards program, we recognize and celebrate students who demonstrate Christ-like character alongside academic achievement.
The powerful partnership between our teachers and families truly sets our lower school apart. This collaboration has led to remarkable results, with our students consistently performing above the 70th percentile compared to their peers nationwide. However, we measure success not through test scores alone but by developing students who find their worth in Christ and demonstrate resilience in the face of challenges.
