Grammar School Curriculum

Grammar stage is the foundation for children in preparing them to continue to study in the stage of Logic and Rhetoric. Our programs focus in preparing the students academically as well as socially and spiritually. Students learn and comprehend new knowledge, concepts, and applications in their daily life. Basic facts and memorization are emphasized in this stage because they are needed for overall comprehension, discussions, questions, presentations, and projects in order to train them to think critically. Parents and teachers work together to nurture students in their development in study habits, character, and spiritual.
