At Clearview, we prioritize academic excellence and social-emotional learning to create a supportive and inclusive learning environment for all of our students. Our kindergarten curriculum focuses on developing strong foundational skills in both math and language arts, as well as fostering a positive and caring classroom culture through Social Emotional Learning (SEL) activities.

In math, our kindergarten students engage in hands-on learning activities that emphasize number sense, basic operations, and problem-solving skills. Through exploration and play, our students build a strong foundation in mathematics that prepares them for future academic success.
In language arts, our kindergarten students develop their reading, writing, and communication skills through a balanced approach that includes phonics instruction, guided reading, and writing workshops. Our goal is to help students become confident and proficient readers and writers, setting them up for lifelong learning.

Clearview also places a strong emphasis on social-emotional learning, recognizing that a child's emotional well-being is just as important as academic success. We use evidence-based practices to teach students self-awareness, self-regulation, and social skills, helping them develop the resilience and empathy necessary for success in school and in life.

We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to reach their full potential, and we are committed to providing a welcoming and academically rigorous kindergarten program that prepares our students for a lifetime of success.
