Education

Assessment and Evaluation

Growing through Assessment

Students’ learning is gauged on their current level of understanding and application of particular learning standards. Teachers identify foundational standards that are critical to student success for each class and grade level. Curriculum standards guide teachers in content selection, instruction methods, and activities. Student understanding and application of each standard are assessed based on rubrics, formative assessments, and performance level descriptors.

Physical Education

Healthy Body, Healthy Mind

We believe that Physical education provides cognitive content and instruction designed to develop motor skills, knowledge, and behaviors for physical activity and physical fitness. Physical education classes happen weekly for all grades to provide students with the ability and confidence to be physically active for a lifetime.

Football is part of our PE classes as our students have expressed keen interest in the matches.  All players in a football match work toward a common goal. Football teaches the students first-hand how their performance impacts the rest of the team and the result of the match. The game teaches them to play both leadership roles as well as supporting roles

STEM stands for “Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.” Living and working in the modern world requires collaboration with a diverse group of people.
