The elementary years (K-5th grade) are crucial in a child's life for the development of a foundation for future academic success and complex learning, including the ability to think critically and make appropriate decisions.
Specific, universal, basic skills must also be mastered during these years.
The American Heritage Academy Elementary program provides a balance of teacher-directed activities, student choice activities, structured large and small group interactions, individual instruction, field trips, and community service projects.
The motivation or desire to learn and continue learning throughout life is also established during these critical early years.
