CURRICULUM

Immaculate Conception Catholic School consists of Transitional Kindergarten and Kindergarten through 8th grade. The curriculum stresses a fundamental educational program integrated with the Catholic/Christian philosophy and values. Our curriculum meets the content standards set forth by California State Board of Education. Our academic program emphasizes language arts: reading, writing, speaking and thinking skills and is integrated in all areas of the curriculum. Our math program emphasizes thinking, computation, and problem solving skills and experience based-learning. Students receive instruction in the following areas:

• Religion
• Language Arts (Reading, English, Writing, Spelling, Handwriting)

Teachers from Kindergarten to 8th grade specialize in teaching specific academic subjects. We utilize a block schedule which consists of three learning blocks: STEM Block – science, technology, engineering, and math; Humanities Block – social studies and religion; Literacy Block – reading and writing. Block scheduling allows for students to have a specialized teacher and more focused instruction in those subject areas.
