The goals of our academic curriculum are to promote trust in self, teacher, peers, and environment; and to foster physical, social, emotional, cognitive, language, math, manipulative, and creative development - all while enjoying school. Elementary classes are individualized and anti-biased, and based on a character-focused curriculum.

Academically, we believe in providing a challenging and enriching curriculum for your children throughout the World Elementary experience. Our school best addresses the needs of students of average ability and above. We offer many and varied opportunities for student enrichment in and beyond the curriculum. Philosophically, we believe that a strong Math and Language Arts foundation form the basis of a good and high quality education.

Briefly, students need to be skilled in the basics of oral/written/visual communication, reading and mathematics, science and technology. Future workers must be able to think critically, logically and analytically. They must be skilled in technical reading and writing and know how to use information systems. They need to appreciate and enjoy art, music and drama, as well as be knowledgeable in history, geography and current events They need to know how to take care of their own physical and mental well being while developing concern for others. Additionally, they must acquire the training necessary to communicate in a second language. The World School's curriculum and staff address these needs with expertise and competence, in a nurturing environment of caring and concern.

Enrichment is available for every subject at every level. Each year at World Elementary each student receives an Individual Student Plan (ISP) that is personalized and created by his/her teacher to encourage the maximization of individual learning. The ISP's are kept in the child's file throughout attendance at our school to promote seamless and individualized progress for the child.

Students in Kindergarten through Grade 3 attend computer class in our Technolgy Lab for 45 minutes per week. In addition, there are computers in each classroom from Preschool 4 through Grade 7, used by students on a daily basis. The focus of the technology program is to use technology to enhance, enrich, and augment classroom learning. Therefore, the software we use often varies from year to year and class to class depending on what topics are being studied and where students could best benefit from curricular development.

Students in Grades 4-7 students have a technology integrated into the classroom.  Students are asked to bring a laptop/netbook to school each day and teachers enhance curriculum lessons through the use of Mimios and Smart Board technology.
