School Notes
Our Kindergarten- 2nd grades are in traditional single-grade
classrooms, however, for grades 3-8 we have multilevel classrooms
with two grades in one room.
Instruction for grades 3-8 is delivered in small multi-grade
classrooms. Within each classroom, students learn through
one-on-one, small group, partner work and differentiated
instruction. In a multi-grade classroom, there is authentic
learning, built-in peer teaching within the multi-grade class and
between classes, increased student perspective to interact with
students of varying ages and increased engagement
(self-directed).We follow a Houghton-Mifflin curriculum that
is focused on developing the core skills students will need to
succeed in school and in life.Each spring students take the
nationally accredited ITBS. The Iowa Tests offer a diagnostic look
at how students are progressing in key academic areas.What

across the country in Reading, Language Arts, Mathematics, Social
Studies, and Science.
