Individualized Learning Program (Grades 2-8)

New Covenant Christian Academy introduces an individualized learning program for students grades two through eight. Qualified teachers, an integrated and innovative curriculum, and a low student-to-teacher ratio virtually guarantees academic success!  

The fundamental areas of learning include:
· Academic achievement: reading, writing and mathematical skills · Critical thinking, reasoning and problem solving · Organization and study skills · Perceptual and motor skills · Motivation and goal attainment · Memory, attention and concentration · Creativity and self-expression · Multi-sensory phonics program (Orton-Gillingham)   

An individual instructional plan is designed to maximize each student’s learning. Through classroom and small group interactive hands-on multi-sensory instruction, all children will be given the opportunity to achieve their academic potential.  

 

Our individualized program is enhanced by:

· Developing Christian character · Small group tutorials · Community service projects · Unit studies · Low student to teacher ratio
