ENRICHMENTS
All children in our elementary school participate in all the the enrichments below each week. Our preschool students participate in the library and music enrichment classes. These are such essential pieces of our school that ensure children are being exposed to many different valuable experiences and skills.
CREATIVE MOVEMENT
In our Creative Movement enrichment class, children learn different ways to stretch, dance and move their bodies. This class is engaging and fun and an active movement class that everyone can get into!
SCIENCE LAB
Children have a natural curiosity about the world and how it works. We love the opportunity to provide a Science Lab experience where children can have the space and time to dig deeper and discover the “why”. Children participate in many STEM activities, hands on lessons and experiments as they learn more about the world around them.
ART
One magical characteristic of children is that they are ALL creative in their own way. We believe in fostering that creativity in fun artistic ways that will give them a foundation for art and culture and help them see the world around them in new, exciting ways.
PE
Physical activity is so important for children as they grow and develop. Being active from a young age can help children develop healthy lifestyles. Our P.E. class mixes stretching, exercises, games and more to get children active and moving. And of course, we have a blast doing it too!
Music
Children naturally learn and respond through music and we believe it's a great experience for children to have as they develop through childhood. Our music class has lots of different elements in addition to singing, like instruments, basic music theory, movement and more.
Library
We believe instilling a love of reading is one of our biggest missions at NDS! We have an amazing librarian that leads our students in an engaging read aloud each week before students roam the library to find books to check out. Our library has been meticulously planned to include the most engaging and quality books to get into our students’ hands.
