Saint Ephrem School provides a challenging academic program for students in Grades PreK-8. The goal of our educational program is to meet the needs of each individual learner.
The courses follow the Common Core Standards and the Archdiocesan curriculum guidelines.
Classroom teachers incorporate technology throughout the curriculum, differentiate instruction, use small and whole group instruction, and guide independent working groups within the rooms.
Learning the Catholic faith, as well as learning to live that faith everyday, are important characteristics underlying these studies.
Courses of study include:
Each year students in grades three through seven are administered the Terra Nova Test.
