DEPARTMENTALIZATION

Pre-K Classes

·        Our Pre-K services three and four-year-old children by offering them experiences adapted to the growth needs of these age levels.  It shares with the parents the responsibility for promoting sound growth in a period when growth is rapid and important.

·        The Pre-K classes have a planned program for learning that opens the door to new interests and enriches already existing ones.  The curriculum offers children opportunities to learn when they show interest and readiness.  It is based on the spontaneous interest of the children themselves and includes numerous opportunities for first hand experiences.  The teacher's role is to help the children relate new experiences to what they already know and to broaden their areas of learning.

·        The Pre-K includes:

o       A three-day program for four year olds.

o       A five-day program for four year olds.

o       A two-day program for three year olds.

Kindergarten

·        Kindergarten, a readiness program, is an integral part of the child's total elementary school program enabling each child to realize his/her potential more fully.  Emphasis is placed on developing the basic skills in math, reading, phonics, and penmanship, as well as the child's physical strength and intellectual curiosity, social skills, emotional strength and self-confidence.   Kindergarten classes are full day sessions.

Primary Grades

·        These classes are primarily self-contained to enable the students to develop skills with consistency and structure in a caring environment.

Grades 4-8

·        At these grade levels, children are often capable of greater depth in understanding and independent study.

·        At this level classes are departmentalized.

·        Teachers are given the opportunity to offer the child more meaningful experiences because they are able to specialize in one area of curriculum.

PROGRAMS

Religious Program

·        Religion is the underlying reality giving meaning to the students' experiences at St. Cecilia School to integrate the three-fold dimension of Christian education: God's message which is proclaimed; fellowship in the life of the Spirit; service to the Christian community as well as the entire human community.  The program has been set up to supplement the religious training provided by the family and aims at leading the child to an ever-deepening life of faith.  Through the use of a basic religion text both the administration and the entire faculty strive to present the fundamental truths of the Catholic faith.  Participation in the liturgy is also a means of making the faith more meaningful to children.  Liturgies, prepared by the individual classes, enable the students to become actively involved, facilitate the teaching of the liturgy, and make Mass a more treasured part of their lives.

·        In addition to the instructions for the Sacraments provided within the school program, the parents are to become involved in the students' preparation for the reception of the Sacraments.

·        Meetings are scheduled for the purpose of helping to acquaint parents with present day methods of instruction for the Sacraments of the Eucharist and Reconciliation.

Reading Program

·        Through a variety of teaching methods, the reading program aims at developing each pupil's top level of performance.  The whole language program, with the inclusion of phonics, spelling and language skills, is used K-5.  Grades 6, 7 and 8 have basic literature texts, which enable them to appreciate classic and contemporary literature across time and throughout cultures.  The integration of language arts includes critical reading, writing, and grammar, speaking and listening.  The entire program emphasizes creative dimensions, as well as reinforcement of skills.

Language Arts Program

·        The primary goal of the elementary language arts program is the acquisition of effective communication skills.  The communication skills are necessary for students to be lifelong learners.  In St. Cecilia's School environment, the acquisition of language skills also enables students to proclaim the Good News and to answer the call of the Church to a life of public witness.

·        Language arts instruction includes the development of skills for listening, speaking, and reading, writing and viewing.  It is a developmental process that involves the integration of these skills and continual refinement throughout the students' education.  When sufficiently mastered, spoken and written language skills will provide the students with verbal and written competencies, which are needed for continued academic pursuits, and for job opportunities.

·        We believe that language arts skills provide a foundation for the development of the students' ability to think critically and logically, to communicate effectively, and to enjoy the lifelong use of language.

Mathematics Program

·        In compliance with the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards for Mathematics and the Mathematics Curriculum Guidelines for the Catholic Schools in the State of New Jersey, St. Cecilia's is making every effort to inspire our students to a greater appreciation of and love for mathematics as one of the "languages" God uses to communicate the wonder and symmetry of His beautiful world.

·        A developmentally appropriate curriculum for students is designed so as to be appropriate for the age span of the children within the group with attention to the different levels and learning styles of the students.  We vision a strong mathematics program that will produce confident problem-solvers who value the importance, power and application of mathematics in their lives.  Collaboration, variety, and opportunity are the cornerstones on which the curriculum is built in order that students will develop a lifelong appreciation of mathematics and become productive members of society bringing Christian values to the world.

Science Program

·        We realize that the teaching and learning of science begins and ends with an appreciation of life as sacred and God-given.  All aspects of the Science Curriculum provide a context in which one can discover the great truths of the natural world; a world unfolding into countless expressions of divine presence in the universe.  Inherent in this unfolding are the great truths that each expression is a revelation of the wondrous diversity and innate sacredness present in the natural world.

·        The classroom provides an environment where process and knowledge of science are emphasized.  The science curriculum emphasizes the process of science as a way of learning and further emphasizes that scientific knowledge is always subject to change based on additional knowledge.  Students are taught the process of science and are given the opportunity to practice scientific skills.

Social Studies Program

·        Social Studies is viewed as the integrated study of social sciences and humanities to promote involvement in civic activities.  The curriculum seeks to create an awareness of our diverse American nation and the interdependent world.  It uses concepts and skills in an effort to understand the historical, economic, geographical, social, political and cultural events within the framework of Catholic moral principles.

·        Students are encouraged to develop the life-long ability to make informed and reasoned decisions and to become reflective thinkers.  As enlightened citizens with Catholic values, students should become active participants in the promotion of peace and justice in our country and the world.

·        The ultimate aim of the curriculum is to enable our students to learn about the past and to better understand the present in order to anticipate and prepare for the future.

Physical Education Program

·        Since St. Cecilia School concerns itself with the education of the whole person, a well-planned physical education program is included in the curriculum.

·        Grades K-8 have classes twice a week.  Each student must be prepared with proper attire on that day. All students wear gym uniforms to school.

·        No one is excused from gym class without a note from the doctor.

·        Because personal safety and concern for the welfare of our students is paramount. NO JEWELRY IS PERMITTED ON GYM DAYS.

Art and Music Programs

Computer Program
