  • Having reading aides in the kindergarten – third/fourth grade classes
  • Emphasizing the importance of communication between the school and home
  • Providing a warm and friendly small school environment
  • Staffing our faculty with nurturing, dedicated, and skilled teachers
  • Fostering a mutual respect between staff, students, and parents
  • Having each staff member of our school trained in child/adult CPR, first aid which includes allergies, immunization, and infectious disease control
  • Training in earthquake preparedness for each staff member

Preschool
Lea’s preschool is state licensed for 45 children and operates both part-time and full-time programs.  It is our belief that young children learn through play and experience; therefore, we offer a variety of learning experiences in a structured environment.  Early literacy, math, and science are incorporated into our daily activities.

Our curriculum challenges students to excel.  Homework is a vital and integral part of our academic program.  Our curriculum includes the Open Court reading/language, spelling, creative writing, Addison Wesley Mathematics, FOSS Science, social studies, music, art, and physical education

crossReligious Development
Lea’s is a nondenominational Christian school.  Our emphasis in religious study is Christ’s message of “love one another as I have loved you.”   Students attend chapel services.  Through our weekly offering, food/toy drives, and global outreach projects we are able to impact lives at home and abroad.
