Daily Schedule and Routine

    The daily schedule was created with the student's interests in mind.  To maximize learning our program is set up to be flexible enough to provide adaptability when necessary but structured enough to provide predictability for the children.  Children learn to trust their environment when they are given a clear, consistent, and concise routine to follow.  We desire for our students to view their school as a safe and comfortable place, where they know what to expect and when to expect it.
Our Christian education classes follow a slightly customized schedule
