Our Curriculum and Programs
Our curriculum is designed to make English both accessible and enjoyable to young learners. Through engaging activities like story time and movie time, students naturally build listening skills and develop strong comprehension. Opportunities for speaking, from classroom Show & Tell to national speech contests, help students gain confidence and express themselves in English. To reinforce daily learning, our campus also offers a dedicated homework class where students review and practice what they’ve learned in class.
Our RISE K program emphasizes language development, critical thinking, and creativity by blending structured academic lessons with interactive activities. Textbooks & Resources:
