LOWER ELEMENTARY

Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, and 1st Grade

Our Lower Elementary School teachers focus on a unique balance of social, emotional, physical, moral, and academic development that targets specific learning milestones. Our research-driven teaching methods and best classroom practices encourage collaboration, cooperation, and the development of independent thinking. Social, collaborative activities are specifically utilized to foster cognitive growth. Respectful play-based and friendship-oriented experiences help develop successful, well-rounded students who are best prepared for the Upper Elementary Program.

Curriculum

At Immaculate Conception Cathedral School, we consistently strive to provide a rigorous, grade-level appropriate, and dynamic data-driven curriculum for our students -  cultivating the whole child through developmentally appropriate learning activities, exploration, and challenges.

Religious Education & Faith Formation

Religious formation and spiritual development are at the heart of everything we do at Immaculate Conception Cathedral School. We live out the Catholic Faith as a school by providing the students with activities on the prayers of the Church and sacramental development:

  • Adoration
  • Advent Prayer Services
  • Annual ICCS Feast of St. Francis Pet Blessing
  • The Atrium (Catechesis of the Good Shepherd)
  • Catholic Schools Week
  • Class-Led Service Projects
  • Disciple of Christ--Education in Virtue Program
  • Friendzy
  • Grade-Level Retreats
  • Lenten Prayer Services
  • Living Rosary Program
  • Living Stations of the Cross
  • May Crowning
  • School Masses
  • School-wide Daily Angelus or Regina Coeli Prayer

ICCS welcomes families of any faith. Students are required to participate in Catholic Theology classes. Theology is considered a core subject and grades are included in the report card. During school Masses, prayer services, and any religious activity/event, we ask that all students attend and are reverent.
