Elementary school: Kindergarten-5th grade and Middle school: 6th-8th
In addition to core subjects such as mathematics, science, and social studies, Immanuel Lutheran School offers instruction in Bible, technology, music, art, physical education, and library courses for all elementary school students. Students are also engaged in reading, writing, spelling, and grammar skills on a daily basis.
Immanuel has a multi-grade classroom format. Multi-level classrooms have many benefits both socially and academically. Socially, younger children will look to older students for guidance while the older students organically learn about mentoring, leadership, and collaboration. In addition, students in a multi-grade classroom tend to be less competitive with one another and more cooperative in their learning and behaviors. Academically, this structure allows students to excel while learning at their developmental level.
Using differentiated instruction, teachers design whole and small group activities to address varying student strengths, needs, and interests while meeting state standards of education for each grade level. In our classrooms, the main focus continues to be the learning needs of all students. Our classrooms are grouped as follows: Kindergarten, 1st grade, 2nd & 3rd grade (combined), 4th & 5th grade (combined), and 6th–8th grade (combined)."
