MATHEMATICS

Math is a subject which builds, each new lesson dependent upon and making use of what has been learned earlier.
Therefore, we work with the student to make up deficits that may impede present learning, as well as working on current material.
We recognize that reading comprehension is also vital in work in mathematics.

LANGUAGE ARTS

We emphasize teaching your child the following skills to improve his/her performance:

BUILDING VOCABULARY

Good reading and writing are dependent upon a strong vocabulary
