Junior Kindergarten - 5th Grade
In our elementary school program, children develop a strong foundation upon which they can build academic success now and in the future. Our staff of dedicated, loving teachers care deeply about the spiritual growth of each child and are committed to helping them identify their strengths and interests to develop their God-given potential.
Our curriculum is standards based, although our teachers strive to move above and beyond the standards in every subject. Teachers and administrators work together to ensure that we have the most up-to-date textbooks (some even web based) and are utilizing the very best in academic resources. Teachers also strive to move beyond the standards to create meaningful and engaging learning experiences. Through the Teaching for Transformation (TfT) framework, students are invited to see how their learning connects to God’s story, helping them understand that what they learn is not just for school, but for life.
Our strong academic program is supplemented with enrichment classes such as computers, library, music, and P.E., all taught by specialists in those areas. We have an exceptional fine arts department that provides opportunities for students to participate in traditional art, orchestra,
Bible is taught daily as a separate subject, but is also integrated into all aspects of curriculum and campus life. Throughout their years at Foothill, students are invited and empowered, through the Teaching for Transformation framework, to grow in their Christian walk, serve others with humility and joy, and thoughtfully connect their faith to all areas of learning and life. This holistic approach prepares them to live discerning lives that honor God long after they leave Foothill.
