Description:  Get ready for a year of fun, discovery, and hands-on learning as we explore the story of America and the world around us! This engaging class introduces young learners to important people, places, and moments in history while naturally weaving in science, language arts, art, and character development.

Through rich stories, creative projects, games, and interactive activities, students will learn in ways that are both exciting and memorable. As they step into the lives of real people from the past, they will encounter powerful examples of kindness, courage, and responsibility that bring character to life.

With a Christ-centered perspective throughout, students will be encouraged to see God’s hand in the world around them. This class creates a warm, joyful environment where children build confidence, curiosity, and a love of learning..

Snacks, Lunch, and Water Bottles:  Children can bring a water bottle and a simple, healthy snack. Apple slices, a banana, or cut vegetables are great options. Students will also need to bring a sack lunch and will be supervised during their lunch period.  

Important note: This is a full day class, which is reflected in the tuition amount listed on the registration form. There is a $5 lunch fee included in the price of the class to cover the cost of having a designated lunch monitor.
