Academics at
St. Agnes of Bohemia
St. Agnes of Bohemia is blessed to offer a wide rage of academic programs from preschool through 8th grade. With a commitment to fostering a nurturing and inclusive environment, the school ensures that every child has the opportunity to thrive and explore their unique talents.
The dedicated faculty and staff are passionate about providing a well-rounded education that not only focuses on academic excellence but also on developing strong moral values and social skills.
Early Childhood Education
We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new St. Agnes of Bohemia Early Education Academy. Our Early Education Academy will be offering high-quality early childhood education programs for children ages 3-5! The Academy believes we all R.I.S.E. together and students are partners in the learning journey. This Academy is designed to foster a nurturing and stimulating environment for your child's development, preparing them for 1st grade and beyond.
Elementary Program
Our objective is to develop creative, collaborative, and critical thinkers who are ready for the challenges and independence that come as our elementary students transition to middle school. We achieve this through the Illustrative Math program for mathematics instruction and the Amplify CKLA program for English Language Arts. Our teachers foster a supportive and nurturing atmosphere while upholding high expectations.
Students remain with their homeroom teachers for Reading, English, Writing, Math and Religion. Students switch classrooms for Physical Education, Spanish and Fine Art. Our 4th and 5th grade students switch for History and Science. All of our teachers build strong instructional plans based on CCSS, NGSS, and Archdiocesan Standards.
Middle School Program
As students transition to 6th through 8th grade, the expectations for responsibility, independence, and leadership rise significantly. Our goal is for students to harness these skills for success in high school and beyond, empowering them to take charge of their futures. Additionally, educators provide support for students' social and emotional development during this crucial adolescent phase through conflict resolution sessions.
Students rotate with their homerooms between ELA, Math, Science, Religion, Social Studies, P.E., Fine Arts, and Computers. Our teachers build upon the students' strong academic foundation from PK-5th Grade using CCSS, NGSS, and Archdiocesan standards.
PBIS | PositiveBehavioral Interventions & Support
PBIS is an approach designed to establish consistent behavioral expectations while supporting students across all behavioral and academic levels. It guarantees that the needs of every student are addressed!
Teachers at St. Agnes of Bohemia established clear behavioral expectations for the entire school, teaching students to be respectful, responsible, and ready in all settings, including bathrooms, classrooms, and hallways.
When students meet and exceed the expectations, they are given a "Lightning Buck." (Named after our school mascot --> Strikers!) Lightning Bucks are accumulated to meet individual, classroom and school-wide goals!
Each month, teachers choose a classroom Lightning Leader who is honored in front of the School at AM assembly. These featured students consistently met School-wide expectation of acting respectfully, responsibly, and ready.
