The Lower School at ECS promotes a nurturing environment that stimulates learning through a wide array of educational methods while remaining committed to academic excellence from a Biblical worldview.
Our curriculum combines an academic foundation with a rigorous program that results in a consistent depth of knowledge across every grade level to benefit all learners. The learning environment continually challenges students with different instructional methods such as: Whole Group, Small Group, Cooperative Learning, Inquiry-Based, Project Based, Hands-On, and Differentiated Instruction. K4-4th grade students have daily recess, PE, and electives including: Art, STEM, Spanish, Chinese, Music, and Library. Our 5th graders have daily electives including: Art, STEM, Spanish, Chinese, Music, and Library. 5th graders also have a rotating schedule of recess, PE and Choir/Band/Orchestra classes.
ECS fosters an environment for academic growth by challenging students with a wide variety of activities designed to enhance their learning experience. These activities include: FACCS Competitions in Creative Writing, Spelling Bee, and Fine Arts. As a result, our students consistently achieve high academic standards.
At Evangelical Christian School, we focus on the whole child by cultivating a safe, healthy, engaging, supportive, learning environment where students are challenged as they continue to grow and develop. We encourage independence, a strong work ethic, responsibility, and Biblical character development.
We encourage extra curricular activities, sports, family time, and church attendance. We look forward to field trips, mission opportunities, Chapels, and quarterly celebrations. Our teachers use a positive behavior support system to reward students for making good choices, demonstrating self control and showing respect to others. Our administration, parents, teachers, and students partner together to build a community with long lasting relationships.
