Our Curriculum

Nurturing Faith, Literacy, and Purpose from the Start

What Sets Our Curriculum Apart

We blend biblical truth with research-based instruction to support the whole child—spiritually, socially, emotionally, and academically.

Faith-Integrated Learning

Every subject includes opportunities to reflect on God’s truth. Prayer, memory verses, and Bible stories are woven into math, science, literacy, and daily routines.

Science of Reading Aligned

Students receive explicit, systematic instruction in phonemic awareness, decoding, and comprehension—equipping them to become confident, joyful readers.

CLI Progress Monitoring

Teachers use tools from the Children’s Learning Institute to track literacy growth and developmental milestones—so we can support each child intentionally.

Whole-Child Instruction

Our program supports emotional, spiritual, physical, and cognitive growth through music, movement, inquiry, and faith-filled learning experiences.

Curriculum Overview By Age

Infants & Toddlers

Sensory-rich learning that nurtures emotional security, communication, and age-appropriate developmental milestones. Faith-filled routines introduce prayer, worship, and biblical truths. Children are supported through play, movement, and nurturing relationships.

Pre-K3

Children explore academic concepts through joyful play. We introduce early literacy, numeracy, science, and Bible stories in ways that support curiosity and spiritual growth. Development is supported through hands-on learning, movement, and song.

Pre-K4

Students prepare for kindergarten with intentional instruction in phonemic awareness, early reading, foundational math, and faith formation. We emphasize independent thinking, social-emotional growth, and spiritual character.

Key Academic Domains

📘 Literacy & Language

Children engage in read-alouds, phonemic awareness games, and storytelling to build vocabulary, comprehension, and a love of reading.

🔢 Math Readiness

Hands-on activities introduce counting, patterns, measurement, and simple operations to develop number sense and early problem-solving skills.

🧠 Science & Inquiry

Children investigate God’s creation through observation, experiments, and nature-based exploration that spark curiosity and discovery.

🗣️ Social Studies & Culture

Through stories, celebrations, and service projects, children learn about families, communities, traditions, and God’s plan for people around the world.

🎵 Music & Movement

Songs, rhythm instruments, and movement games help children build coordination, express emotion, and worship through joyful noise.

🎨 Art & Sensory Play

Creative experiences with various textures and tools strengthen fine motor skills while encouraging self-expression and imagination.

🙏 Bible & Worship

Daily scripture, chapel, and prayer routines invite children to know God’s Word, experience His love, and practice Christ-like character.

💬 Social-Emotional Learning

Teachers guide children in expressing feelings, solving problems peacefully, and building empathy through faith-based conversation and modeling.

Faith At the Core

Every part of our day—from circle time to story time—is grounded in God’s Word. Our 11 spiritual units guide students through big truths like God’s love, emotions and grace, gratitude, and Jesus’ life and mission.
