K4-K5 Print

SVCA's Kindergarten program begins with the Kindergarten-4 program and continues through the advanced kindergarten (AK5) program. Currently, all kindergarten programs at SVCA are full-day and use ABeka curriculum. Although the programs build off of each other, it is not necessary for a student to complete the year prior to be able to succeed in their classroom, as each year begins with foundational material.

Each class uses instructional and activity sessions to teach letters, colors, numbers, shapes, and printing. In addition, each class makes time for daily Bible time, playtime and nap time. Both the K4 and K5 programs teach phonics as the foundational technique to reading and will include lessons on history and science throughout the year.

AK5 is comprised of students who have completed the K4 program and have been recommended into the AK5 program by the K4 teaching staff based on their academic ability.

The kindergarten programs school days begin at 8:15 am and conclude at 3:00 pm. The school year typically begins at the beginning of September and will conclude in the middle of May with a kindergarten graduation ceremony for the K5 and AK5. K4 students will finish at the same time as K5 and AK5 students.

Class ratios:
K4 7:1
K5/AK5 13:1

Extended care is available both before and after school.
