Elementary School

Setting the foundation of faith, excellence, and service

The Elementary School at St. John Vianney Regional School encompasses kindergarten through 5th grade. These grades are primarily self-contained classrooms. Teachers are allowed the flexibility of team-teaching in instruction of the core subjects of religion, reading, language arts, math, science, and social studies. To compliment academic instruction, the subjects of art, music, physical education, library, and Spanish are taught by specialized teachers. 

Our elementary curriculum is rooted in a commitment to basic skills leading to higher levels of intellectual achievement with a strong foundation for academic success. As emerging readers, writers, and mathematicians, students in the 1st through 5th Grade explore learning in small, nurturing groups with a balance of discovery and teacher-directed instruction. Building confidence, fostering ​independence, and enhancing self-esteem are important objectives of the St. John Vianney program.

Our 3rd Graders are prepared for the sacraments of Penance and First Holy Communion. As students learn about God’s plan of love and mercy, they begin to understand that these sacraments are God’s gift to us and that they, too, are part of God’s loving plan. Special emphasis is given to preparation for and reception of these sacraments, as well as learning about the Mass.
