Elementary Academics

Transitional Kindergarten bridges the gap between preschool and elementary, offering five full days of instruction, enrichment classes, and chapel participation. Our caring teachers combine play, social growth, and academics to prepare students for success in K–8. With biblical integration woven throughout, TK is a strong foundation for lifelong

Our full-day program introduces reading, phonics, early math, and Bible lessons in a fun, structured environment. Students also participate in art, music, PE, library, and technology. With small class sizes and dedicated aides, we ensure each kindergartener is prepared for first grade success.

First graders grow into confident, independent readers and writers. They expand math skills with addition, subtraction, and geometry, while also exploring science and history. Field trips to Peltzer Farms and Birch Aquarium bring lessons to life.

Second graders dive deeper into history and science, learning about pilgrims, the Revolutionary War, animals, and habitats. Math skills expand into double and triple-digit operations and early multiplication. Field trips include Riley’s Farm and the San Diego Safari Park.

Third grade builds responsibility and independence. Students master multiplication facts, study the solar system and Civil War, and expand vocabulary and writing. Field trips include Jurupa Mountain Discovery Center and the Discovery Cube.

Fourth grade focuses on California history, from Native Americans and the missions to the Gold Rush and state development. Students also learn advanced math concepts such as fractions, long division, and geometry. Field trips include Mission San Juan Capistrano and the Ocean Institute.

Fifth grade students stretch academically with American history, states and capitals, earth science, and operations with decimals and fractions. Bible lessons emphasize living a godly life, and students strengthen essay writing and research skills.

Sixth grade is a capstone year that prepares students for middle school and beyond. In math, students expand into integers, fractions, decimals, percentages, algebraic concepts, and coordinate graphing. Science studies include Earth and Space science such as oceans, rocks, extreme weather, and astronomy, as well as human body systems and healthy living.

English builds on grammar, sentence structure, and essay writing while incorporating novel studies for deeper literary analysis. History centers on ancient civilizations including Mesopotamia, Egypt, and Greece, always pointing to God’s sovereign plan in history. Bible lessons emphasize Christ-like character and conclude with a study of Revelation.

Outside the classroom, sixth graders embrace leadership and service, often organizing projects such as Operation Christmas Child. Their year concludes with an exciting three-day trip to Rawhide Ranch, blending learning, community, and fun as a memorable end to the elementary journey.
