Elementary School Program
St. Martin’s offers a traditional academic program, providing a basic foundation in mathematics, reading, language arts, penmanship, literature, study skills, science, history, social studies and health.
We also offer a comprehensive enrichment program that may consist of; art, computers, music and drama, performing arts, religious instruction, Spanish, physical education, library, educational field trips and/or community service projects.
Our library is well maintained and our students use the library as a source of information for the various reports and projects they complete throughout the year. Students also learn the skills for using a library and are introduced to works of literature.
Our music, drama, and performing arts programs are introduced to all students as a means of communication of ideas, feelings and creativity. Students participate as audience when we invite performers to the school, and as performers in our Christmas Program and/or Talent Show which we invite you to attend and enjoy.
Our art program allows the students to participate in a variety of creative projects using many different mediums. We encourage a love and appreciation of art in all the children.
Physical education is an integral part of our program that helps build spirit and encourage unity. It also promotes wellness and seeks to encourage a lifetime appreciation of physical fitness.
Our Chapel program is attended by all students from Kindergarten (once a week) and Grades 1-5 (4 times a week) and encourages students to discover the presence of God in their lives.
All students, Kindergarten through 5th Grade, have the opportunity to participate in our Community Service program by helping to make Christmas a happy time for the children and families at Hillsides. Other Community Service opportunities may also be offered during the year. St. Martin’s students learn the value of compassion and caring and recognize their own ability to contribute to their communities.
