Our Academic Program
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
Our elementary school provides a well- rounded education to children from PK-6th
grades. Our classes are self-contained, allowing for the integration of the many
areas of study. Students are taught religion, reading, language arts, math, social
studies, science, and art by their classroom teacher. A music and physical education
teacher are also on staff to help provide those aspects of the children’s education.
Each classroom is equipped with computers to help students expand their technological
horizons. A full-time resource room teacher is on staff to help those students who
need smaller group sessions. Students of Our Saviour’s elementary school participate
in New York State tests such as the ELA’s and others. Our Saviour Lutheran School
has also been named an Exemplary School by the US Dept. of Education. Pre-Care and
After-Care programs are also available at this level. For a small fee, children
can arrive as early as 7:15 am and remain at Our Saviour until 5:45 pm. (No transportation
is provided.)
