Discover Kindergarten At Santa Clarita Christian School
“We believe that preparing for college begins in Kindergarten,” said SCCS Director of Academics, Lynn Kistler. “It’s important to get it right.”
Reading and writing are important first steps at SCCS. Kindergarteners are taught the alphabet, learning the names of the letters, the sounds they make (phonics) and how to write them. By December students are reading simple stories in chapter books.
“Our phonics program is excellent,” said SCCS Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Steinbock. “It gives the kids confidence in their reading. Students also enjoy meeting weekly with their third grade buddy to practice reading.”
Math is another “graded” subject. Kindergarteners are taught simple concepts like “same/different” and “alone/between/ next to.” They’re taught to recognize two and three-dimensional shapes, and patterns. They learn to count by marking off days on a calendar, eagerly anticipating the “100-Day Party.” By graduation, they can perform simple calculations like adding and “take away” of single digits.
In science and social studies, children learn about the earth and sky, plants and animals, community helpers and countries of the world through a biblical worldview.
SCCS Kindergarteners also get to attend weekly chapels and memorize Bible verses. Additionally, all kindergarteners have the opportunity to compete in sports through SCCS’s intramural program, as well as enroll in the available after school enrichment classes.
Technology rich classrooms, enriching field trips with parents, P.E. classes, library time, music classes, computer instruction and hands on experiments all add to SCCS’ comprehensive Kindergarten program.
