Fifth Grade

In Fifth Grade students begin their journey into independence and personal responsibility. They learn skills to help them create study guides, fact-check their research, engineer new devices, give engaging speeches, and constructively debate their peers. The curriculum contains challenging and enriching topics such as United States History and the Scientific Method. Curriculum highlights include:

  • The Revolutionary and Civil Wars
  • Fractions, decimals, and geometry
  • Early explorers and Great American Heroes

In Fifth Grade, students put on a Living Wax Museum where they dress up as famous individuals and freeze like a statue until promoted to present to members of our school and community. Each student represents a different “Great American Hero” these are all figures the students recognize as making a large positive impact in the world. Past figures that have been represented include Susan B. Anthony, Creola Katherine Johnson, and Martin Luther King, Jr.
