“Train up a child in the way he should go, and
when he is old he will not turn from it.”
Proverbs 22:6
The primary emphasis in elementary school is placed
on the student’s arraignment of the basic skills in language,
reading skills and mathematics.
Parents receive regularly issued report cards (every nine weeks),
as well as interim reports, evaluating their child’s academic
accomplishments, conduct, effort, and other matters of importance.
These reports show grades for academic achievement and conduct as
well as teacher notation regarding effort and other matters of importance.
Grading System
A 93-100 D 70-77
B 86-92 F 69-Below
C 78-84
In grades 1-4, letter grades A through F are used
to indicate superior through unsatisfactory performance. Symbols of
plus and minus are given to communicate the student’s level
within each letter grade range. A full range of comments is used to
communicate the student’s participation, attitude, and effort
levels.

Testing
In addition to routine classroom examination, students in grades 1-4
are evaluated each spring by using selected standardized tests. These
tests serve as one type of measurement of a child’s academic
progress and potential in relation to others in the school, state,
and nation. Composite class scores are used to measure the adequacy
of the school curriculum and/or instruction. Parents receive a test
report summarizing the results of their child’s abilities and/or
performance.
School Records:
The school maintains a cumulative academic, attendance, and health
record for each student enrolled. Disciplinary records are not ordinarily
retained as a part of the student’s cumulative record. Material
in each student’s cumulative file is confidential and shall
be accessible only by permission of the school Principal.
Library Books:
Each K5 class visits the library once every six days to check out
books, books on tape, and periodicals. Students in all grades may
take them home. A “Parent Resource Library” is also available
for our parents to check out materials.
