Elementary Academics

Elementary Academics

Curriculum

Elementary grades continue to build on the foundation established in the preschool. Social skills, large and small motor coordination, and self-concept are fostered in various activities such as stories, music, art projects, sharing time, games, etc. The Abeka curriculum is used in all 1st–5th grades.

Scope & Sequence

Abeka is a well-established, traditional curriculum with a strong foundation on the Bible. Therefore, it is also our curriculum of choice from our K3 all the way to the 5th grade. Curious to see what you have to look forward to in your elementary student’s education at Friendship Christian Schools? Check out the Elementary Scope & Sequence below!

Learning Expectations

Even though uniforms and textbooks vary from grade to grade, there is a core set of values which FCS attempts to instill into the life of every student enrolled at the school.
