 Kindergarten
The ECS kindergarten program uses full-day classes to nurture and encourage children to develop curiosity and confidence in learning. Along with social and emotional development, the kindergarten program continues the development of phonics skills to a reading level, numerical skills, artistic and musical ability, and knowledge of the Bible.
Elementary
The elementary program features a strong foundation in reading phonics, mathematics, language arts, history, geography, and science. Daily Bible time, weekly chapels, and character development program form a firm basis for spiritual development. Additional teaching specialists also instruct students in art, music, computers, P.E. and Spanish. Field trips and hands-on experiences provide added opportunities for exploration and growth.

From the stories of Creation, Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Moses, David, Jesus and many others, students will appreciate the lives of famous heroes, who by example provide a foundation for living."
First Grade Bible Theme: God's Gifts to Me "Familiar Bible stories are expanded into a theme of 'God's Gifts to Me' as students study how God gives gifts of the world, families, friends, leaders, salvation, the church and a way to live. Students are provided with a variety of colorful, innovative materials from which they make booklets, mobiles, baskets, puzzles, flash cards and much more."
Second Grade Bible Theme: God's Way to Live "The content format changes as second-graders begin learning about Bible characters in two-and three-week units. Studying a different life scenario each week, they focus on thirty-six character traits from the lives of various Bible characters and how to emulate these traits in their daily lives."
Third Grade Bible Theme: Christ and His Church "Third-graders study the life of Christ, the book of Acts and missions. As students are personally guided through the Gospels they learn and apply principles from the messages, parables, miracles and life events of Jesus. Moving into Acts, students see the building of God's Church as the Gospel spreads through the missionary journeys of Paul and through famous missionaries of history."
Fourth Grade Bible Theme: Christ and His Word "Through Randy "Sherlock" Holmes and his faithful companion, "Woofson," students begin the year with tools for Bible study and then tackle traditional doctrinal subjects masterfully prepared for the their grade level. Some of the topics include God, His Word, Christ, the Holy Spirit, the Church, Salvation, Heaven, and Hell. Students not only gain an understanding of these doctrines but how the doctrine applies to them personally."
Fifth Grade Bible Theme: Christ and My Choices "Three strands of instruction occur in fifth grade: a survey or overview of the Old Testament; an in-depth study of the lives of various Bible characters presented in chronological order; and choices (good or bad) made by these characters which serve as examples for students as they make their own choices. These materials are magnificently woven together as they challenge students to examine their own decision making."
