Curriculum

This page will give you an overview of Baymonte’s curriculum.  The teaching staff is actively involved in the selection of all curriculum materials we adopt.  We follow the State of California Educational Framework and Content Standards for the primary content of the subject area content.  Most of the textbooks we select are state approved texts.  Classroom teachers integrate biblical truth and Christian values throughout the curriculum.

The following are the textbooks we use in each subject as a basis for our curriculum:

All elementary students receive P.E. instruction two times per week from our P.E. specialist.  Middle School students participate in a regularly scheduled physical education class.  They also have the opportunity to participate in extracurricular sports with other Christian schools in the Bay Area Christian Schools Athletic League.

Each elementary class receives music instruction two times per week during which
students receive vocal instruction and are taught to read music.  Fifth grade students may
also elect to receive instrumental instruction.  Middle School students may participate in
Band or Worship Team as electives.

Each classroom has one or more computers and each student has weekly time in the
Library Media Center where they receive instruction in library usage and research skills. 
They will also receive hands-on computer/technology instruction.  Middle School
students have access to the Media Center computer lab and may take various
computer courses as electives.

All Middle School students receive Spanish instruction approximately two times per
week (it alternates with Physical Education).  Middle School students have a wide variety
