Each child is assessed when entering Our Lady of Grace School and placed academically according to his or her grade level in each subject. Students who have advanced skills in some areas or are behind in others benefit greatly from this approach. Every subject is challenging and great progress can be made in all subjects.
The curriculum is chosen with a view to excellence in all subjects.
The math curriculum is exceptional. A full grounding in Math facts accompanies concepts taught in an incremental approach with a built in review process.
Language Arts includes attention to penmanship. The school uses a superb phonics and reading program. Grammar is taught at every grade level, as is creative writing. Beginning in Grade 7, a Shakespeare play is studied every year.
French, Music and Physical education are taught to all Grade levels. Latin is taught to Grades 7 and up. An excellent science program completes the curricula.
Small class sizes and a student/teacher ratio of six to one are invaluable.
