The Lower Division (Kindergarten - Grade 4)

Shorecrest’s Lower Division provides the foundation necessary for students to be successful at the next level. In these formative years, the academic focus is on the development of fundamental skills in several key areas.

Communication—A strong language arts program stresses oral and written communication, reading comprehension, and an appreciation of literature.

Math—Incorporating recommendations from the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Standards, the mathematics curriculum focuses on developing an understanding of mathematical concepts and the ability to think and reason. It also provides opportunities to apply these skills in problem solving situations.

Science and Technology—Science, social studies, and the integration of technology contribute to a balanced curriculum.

Additional Programs—Every student also participates in Spanish, music, art, and physical education. In addition, a comprehensive Fine Arts Enrichment Program introduces all students to accomplished artists, various music forms and theatrical performances.
