K-5th Grade

 

At Mysa, students have a varied schedule in grades K-5 that is built upon the Common Core Curriculum requirements to complete all subjects. With customized menus each week, students are able to complete grade level work and go beyond their grade level guided by their interest and ability, as teachers and leadership work to complete menus each week and assess their achievement to ensure mastery-based learning.

 

Each week, students leave the classroom for the day to connect their studies to the community. They may be planting, harvesting in an urban garden, or visiting a local museum to build on cultural, historical studies that week.
