Blended Kindergarten
We offer a blended kindergarten for students with mild developmental delays.  This classroom is limited to eighteen students and has two teachers.

Spectrum Inclusion
Our certified Spectrum program offers an advanced learning curriculum for eligible students in grades one through five.  The inclusion aspect of this program offers children who do not test into Spectrum the opportunity to receive the advanced learning curriculum. 

Linguistic Remedies
Our teachers use Linguistic Remedies to strengthen students’ reading skills and identify reading difficulties early.  This method helps children understand reading and writing by teaching the sounds of letters, letter combinations and words through hearing, seeing and speaking. 

All-School Math Block
Our students are taught math based on their ability, not their grade level.  In addition to our classroom teachers, we have three other teachers that take groups for math instruction.

Our math scores increased from 83.3% in 2003 to 91.4% in 2004. Our students have fun while they are learning!
