In
our Early Education Department, your child will be gently guided
in making the transition from an individual learner to a
group participant, an important part of development, where
he or she can begin to learn sharing and social skills. Our
talented teachers are committed to providing a loving, nurturing,
and safe environment where preschoolers smile while they sing,
pray, count, create and explore. Your preschooler’s
spirit will soar as they participate in a hands-on age-appropriate
curriculum that fosters a love for learning and new adventures.
In this balanced environment, children feel confident to
try new things and if necessary, try again.
Spiritual Development
The Bible is the tool through which all learning is viewed.
Scripture is woven into daily curriculum to help children
understand and apply Biblical truths within their own lives.
Our faculty and staff are committed to instilling a desire
to obey and walk closely to God as these truths are made
known. Daily Bible instruction and prayer, Scripture memorization,
and weekly chapel are all integrated into the classroom experience.
K-3
Year Old Program
This year will be a new beginning for your child with an open
door of learning before them.
Our age 3 classes consist of 10 students per teacher.
The
academic year is designed with a basic introduction to phonics
and the alphabet along with number recognition. Penmanship
skills are developed as their fine motor skills advance. Students
also begin to build a Spanish vocabulary which helps to foster
an appreciation for foreign language and people of diverse
backgrounds.
Developing
social skills, playing with other children, and learning to
sit in a structured classroom setting are all a part of the
daily educational
experience. In addition, basic classroom rules and structure
will be learned. This groundwork, laid by teachers, grooms
the child’s desire to learn God’s plan for his/her
life and, in turn, to obey God’s Word.
K-4
Year Old Program
This is an exciting time as we watch children begin to grow
and develop.
Our class size is limited to 18 students per teacher.
Students
will begin to learn the key elements of phonetic reading. After
Christmas vacation, the students begin reading circles. Students
begin to work independently at their desk while others read
with the teacher.
This
year will be carefully coordinated to build a solid foundation
for our kindergarten. Children will learn to count up to 40.
This will include number recognition and concepts. Penmanship
skills are developed daily. Spanish is also taught giving students
exposure to a new language while developing an appreciation
for people of diverse cultures. Social studies and science
are also introduced into the curriculum. CCS provides an overall
learning experience incorporating games, drama, art, and music.
K-5 Year Old Program
Our K-5 program falls under our elementary department. For more specific information about K-5 contact our admissions office.
Your child will HAVE FUN every day!
