About the program:

St. John’s Lutheran School has adopted Core Knowledge as the foundation for our written curriculum in Preschool through 8th grade. 

PRESCHOOL: St. John’s Lutheran School operates a Christ-centered Preschool to meet the needs of children beginning at age three.  The school operates on a half day and full day basis.

KINDERGARTEN: The Kindergarten is a reading, writing kindergarten with the emphasis on phonics, reading readiness, developmental thinking, mathematical relationships, religion, beginning science and social studies skills and concepts.  In general, we concentrate on the development of a meaningful academic program for future formal school success.

The child also develops skill in handling school peer relationships.  The establishing of positive attitudes toward school and developing personal responsibility require parent and teacher dedication and consistent communication.

GRADES 1 – 8: The education of the child in both the elementary and intermediate grades is based on the need for a firm foundation of basic knowledge to develop the tools necessary to function successfully in the broadened scope of education.  Each classroom is essentially self-contained, with the classroom teacher responsible for instruction in most subject areas.  Some departmentalization is in place in specialty areas like music, Spanish, and physical education.  All subjects are presented using means which make education creative and meaningful.  All subjects throughout the day are approached from a distinctly Christian point of view. A full range of academic subjects is included.
