intellectually and emotionally.
Our curriculum is based on the Common Core Standards of Learning. This curriculum provides thought-provoking paths to
knowledge and spiritual growth for boys and girls through St. Clare’s early childhood-development programs and its elementary
school.
From one generation to the next, St. Clare’s has thrived because it is a community driven school, which benefi ts from parental
involvement.
St. Clare’s also offers the free Pre K for All program for our four-year-old children. This is a full-day program funded by the
New York City Department of Education and the United States Government, which provides children with center-based activities
in science, math, social studies and language arts. The hours are 8:00 – 2:20 p.m. daily.
Along with our academic curriculum, St Clare’s School values the importance of the arts, music, and computer science, creating
a wellrounded student. To aid in this effort, Smart Boards are used at all grade levels. This year we will be have the Pearson ILit
program. This is a specialized Reading program which will meet each students on their Lexile level. They will have approximately
1500 books available to them on their electronic device.
In addition to this, we offer an abundance of programs for every grade: basketball, volleyball, cheerleading and bowling, as well
as an after-school program until 6 p.m.
