Elementary School (Grades 1 – 6)

Biblical Standards, Critical Thinking, and Collaboration

At Killian Hill Christian School, each student experiences standards-based instruction in Bible, math, language arts (reading, grammar, writing, spelling), science, and social studies. Critical thinking, discovery and investigation, and collaboration are essential 21st-century competencies integrated throughout our curriculum. Additionally, students participate in weekly chapels and daily Bible instruction. Every subject is taught through the lens of Biblical truth.

Technology is integrated across the curriculum through the use of LCD projectors, iPads for both students and teachers and computer instruction during the STEM specials class. Furthermore, KHCS teachers conduct help classes for elementary school students.

Additional to core classes, students also experience different specials classes including the following:

• STEM

Art and drama classes are scheduled throughout the year as focused opportunities.
