Academic Excellence
Holy Family Parish School's reading and language arts curriculum includes phonics, sight words, spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and literature. Our math curriculum is designed to promote critical thinking skills while providing opportunity for mastery of math facts and operations. Students learn to problem solve by combining basic math skills with higher-level thinking skills. Grades K-6 study general math while middle school students study pre-algebra and Algebra I. Geography, history, and civics are incorporated into the social studies curriculum. Our science program uses the scientific inquiry approach in physical, life, and earth sciences.
