Curriculum Updates
Wheel Classes
Our research-based curriculum is reviewed on an ongoing basis to ensure that each child is inspired, challenged and prepared for life in the 2zt century. Children in grades 1-8 will be participating in a rotating wheel schedule. Wheel schedules allow for students to take part in several different academic and artistic disciplines.
Grades 5-8 Math Placement
To accommodate the needs of our students, we will be offering two different math courses for students in grades 5-8. Thoughtful consideration is exercised by the teachers and administration to ensure that each student is placed at the level where he/she will be appropriately challenged and able to achieve independent success.
Data used to determine math course placement includes TerraNova, IA and STAR math scores along with report card grades and teacher recommendations. Students in regular math who demonstrate outstanding performance and earning a grade of 97% or higher at the end of the first trimester will be permitted to move up to the honors track.

Lunch Program
Students are permitted to bring lunch to school. As an alternative, we are excited to offer Three Brothers Restaurant at our school! We would like to thank Three Brothers for attending our Teacher Meet & Greet. Their food samples were delicious! Their website is now ready to take lunch orders. During the first week of school, you can order and pay for lunch one day at a time. In about a week, you will be able to order lunches for multiple days in one transaction. For any other questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to email Ms. Alex Warner at
