Christian Elementary School
Christian Elementary School Curriculum
In addition to core subjects such as mathematics, science, and social studies, the Christian elementary school at Immanuel Lutheran School offers instruction in Bible, technology, music, art, and physical education for all elementary school students. Students are also engaged in reading, writing, spelling, and grammar skills on a daily basis.
Using differentiated instruction, teachers design whole and small group activities to address varying student strengths, needs, and interests while meeting state standards of education for each grade level. In our classrooms, the main focus continues to be the learning needs of all students.
