The St. John Vianney Regional School curriculum incorporates the Diocesan Curriculum Guidelines with the Pennsylvania Academic Standards for math, reading and language arts, library science, social studies, and science; the National Council of Teaching Mathematics (NCTM); and the Pennsylvania Literacy Framework (PLF). In addition to core subjects, students receive instruction in art, library science and research, computer technology, music, and physical education.

Early Childhood
The 3-Year-Old and 4-Year-Old programs allow children to experience socialization and learning through play activities by focusing on religion, language readiness, numbers, shapes, colors, art and music. The 5-year-old, Pre-K class provides important skills and concepts needed for kindergarten readiness by integrating religious concepts, language skills, literature, phonics, mathematics, science, and social skills.

Kindergarten
Our full-day program focuses instruction on phonetics, literature and Christianity. Our kindergarteners blossom as readers, learn to write basic sentences and practice letter formation. They become confident in math as they add and subtract, tell time, and count coins. The year’s highlight is the 100th Day Celebration.

1st through 4th Grade
Our elementary curriculum is rooted in reinforcing basic skills, leading to higher levels of intellectual achievement. This builds a strong faith-based foundation for academic success. As emerging readers, writers, and mathematicians, students in the Main Building explore learning in small nurturing groups. Developing confidence, fostering independence, and enhancing self-esteem are important objectives of our elementary program.

5th through 8th Grade
