Curriculum
Emmanuel has high academic performance standards that describe what students should know and be able to do as a result of their schooling. The standards constitute all aspects of the curriculum – Bible, Language Arts, Social Studies, Science, and Math. Students also receive co-curricular instruction in Physical Education, Computers, Art, and Music.
The Key Learnings provide an overview of the content that students should know and be able to do in each subject area and grade. Multi-grade classrooms are on an even and odd year cycle for Bible, Social Studies, and Science. Please speak with your child's teacher regarding the cycle your child will be on this school year.
