  Curriculum
 
 

Please see our Handbook Section 300.6 and Section 700.2 for specific information regarding our curriculum.

Understanding that students remember 10% of what they hear, 50% of what they see, and 90% of what they do, SCS teachers strive to make learning practical and memorable through various hands-on experiences. It is part of what enables a child to learn with ease. Citing a few examples of our hands-on program will help to explain our learning techniques:
   
 
Reading stresses phonics, but is enhanced by costumed characters such as Clifford, the Big Red Dog.
   
Science kits are made available for all grade levels.
   
Math manipulatives are used in each classroom.
   
A medieval dinner is held each year where parents are the dinner guests and the students role-play characters from peasant servants to the king of the realm.
   
Simulations in history class allow students to experience a different time period.
   
A spelling bee, geography bee, and speech meet allow healthy competition.
   
  In addition, our curriculum also includes Spanish, art, music, physical education, health, computer/technology, and library.
