School Notes
- At Elim Christian School, we provide a variety of learning environments (small group, one-on-one, and on-line) tailored to fit the appropriate physical, emotional, and academic needs of each individual student.We evaluate success based on mastery of concepts rather than with letter grades. Student to Teacher ratio is no more than 7:1 and we design annual Personalized Education Goals (PEGs) for each student. We offer hands-on, curriculum-directed, project-based learning that leads to concrete life applications and that emphasize creativity, collaboration, critical thinking, and communication. As a whole school, we participate in service and missions projects and takefrequent field trips tied to curriculum and service objectives.
