Academic Program
Overview
Our curriculum provides the unifying structure by which
each school division of St. Luke's School achieves its academic objectives.
Yearly reviews ensure that curriculum flows
logically through each grade.
Integrated within each discipline are the core values
that mark our uniqueness as a school. Also
integrated are the technologies, research tools, and processes that students
will master as they participate as learners throughout each curricular area.
Additionally, since knowledge is not isolated within a subject area
or discipline, the curriculum teams emphasize ideas, skills, and concepts
taught across the curriculum.

for the early learning years of three to six years old.

insure that students learn in a developmentally appropriate, sequential way
to build understanding.

and draw on their interests in a wide range of topics including weather,
