We Celebrate children’s natural sense of wonder
我们的目标是 较低的学校 (Pre-K-5) is to open a new world of learning for our youngest Scots while contributing to each child's 社会 and emotional growth. We strive to provide learning experiences for our early childhood and elementary level students that combine a sense of community, 信任, and friendships while igniting their interest and curiosity in the world around them.
In alignment with our PYP项目, Saint Andrew’s has adopted Singapore Math, a program that refers to a teaching methodology that emphasizes a conceptual approach to understanding 数学.
Saint Andrew’s delivers a multi-faceted litreracy instruction through units exploring both reading and writing. The 较低的学校 has implemented the Institute for Multi-Sensory Education's Orton-Gillingham structured literacy program. We utilize Fountas and Pinnell’s Literacy Continuum in kindergarten through five.
Our single-subject teachers engage our students in areas such as performing arts, 技术, 数学, 科学, and world languages.
