Curriculum

The curriculum offered at Our Lady of Lourdes School marks a fine balance between academics, religion, and character development (which is infused in all curricular areas).  Our students not only receive a high caliber education that will prepare them for the rigors of high school, but also one that will strengthen their faith in God and help them deal with the pressures that they will undoubtedly face as they mature.

• Teachers of all subject areas plan lessons to allow for cross-curricular linking of topics.
• Catholic social teachings are incorporated into all subject areas.
• Use of technology is incorporated into all subject areas.

Learning is student-centered.  Examples include but are not limited to : Individualization, small group instruction, large group instruction, departmentalization, computerized instruction, cooperative learning. All grouping arrangements are made in view of the learning needs of individual students

The Sadlier We Believe Religion Series, grades K-8, is a spiral, integrated and thematic curriculum that presents the key concepts of faith each year in a deeper and broader way as the student grows more capable of understanding and living in discipleship.  We Believe also encourages understanding of major faith statements, catechism connections, scripture, saints and devotions.
