Our Academics & Electives

We draw upon the expertise of our educators and work together to create models of outstanding achievement in every classroom. Through implementing high-quality instructional materials and transforming the academic culture in our schools, we challenge and inspire our students to thrive in the world. With a wide variety of academics and enrichment opportunities aligned with state standards, we support students in unlocking their potential as they extend their skills and talents beyond the classroom. Our core curriculum includes:

English Language Arts - We are committed to nurturing and developing a strong literacy foundation for all students in the early school years by implementing literacy instructional frameworks that prepare students to become independent readers and writers.

Math - The mathematics curriculum seeks to ensure mathematical competence and confidence in students in mathematics-rich classroom environments.

Science - Classroom experiences in science are connected to real-world phenomena and provide opportunities to engage in science and engineering practices through exposure to STEM-related career pathways.

Social Studies - Students gain the content knowledge, intellectual skills, and core democratic values necessary for fulling their civic duties in a participatory democracy and effectively engaging in our global society

Music/Band: Learn to play an instrument, read music, musical notes, dance and be apart of a choir or band.

DAP/CEP (Detroit Area Pre-College Engineering Program): is a pre-college engineering, science and technology initiative in metropolitan Detroit. DAPCEP is dedicated to increasing the number of historically under-represented minority students (African-American, Hispanic-American and NativeAmerican) who are motivated and academically prepared to pursue careers in engineering, science and mathematics-related fields.

Student Council: This is a group of students elected by their peers to address issues of concern and organize student events and activities.
Language Arts (EL Education Curriculum): Lessons that engages teachers and students through interesting, real world content and builds fair and inclusive learning opportunities for all students.

Social Studies: Take a closer look at the United States, as they learn about politics, the history of westward expansion, our economy, the events leading to (and following) the Civil War, political science, geography, including Michigan and notable American achievements.

Math (Eureka Math): connects math to the real world in ways that take the fear out of math and build student confidence—helping students achieve true understanding lesson by lesson and year after year.

Science: Lessons that aim to help children develop basic scientific ideas and understanding about the biological and physical aspects of the world. We also offer programes like robotics (introduction to engineering that involves the conception, design, manufacture, and operation of robots).

Physical Education: Our goal is to improve and maintain students' current health and set them on a path to maintain a healthy lifestyle throughout their lives.
