Welcome to 1st grade!

First grade is an exciting time as children embark upon new adventures in the world of learning. This is a year of important transitions, as well as one in which acquisition of new skills is accelerated. During first grade, your child will learn how to read, write stories, add, subtract, and so much more. I hope to make your child’s learning experience a fun and exciting one, and I hope to instill a love of learning that will last throughout your child’s years of school.



Our Curriculum is Bible Base from BJU Press, I feel privilege to be an extension of the family by setting the foundation for Faith Base Learning with this curriculum that is centered on the scripture values and the truth of God’s word.

So much happens in First Grade! Because of this, the year will be full of important transitions. It is extremely important to keep in mind that we all build on small successes. Each child will progress at his/her own rate, acquiring skills as he/she is developmentally ready. Maintaining each child's self-esteem and building a secure foundation for future growth will always remain a priority in our first grade.

I welcome and encourage parents to be part of our classroom by participate in activities throughout the school year. Don't hesitate to talk to me if you have any questions or concerns. I’m very excited about this school year and I look forward to meeting you!

God Bless
