MILPITAS CHRISTIAN SCHOOL'S ELEMENTARY PROGRAM EQUIPS CHILDREN IN TRANSITIONAL KINDERGARTEN/KINDERGARTEN THROUGH 5TH GRADE. CHILDREN, CREATED IN THE IMAGE OF GOD, DESERVE A COMPLETE EDUCATION FOR THEIR MIND (MENTAL), HEART (EMOTIONAL), SOUL (SPIRITUAL) AND BODY (PHYSICAL). IN THE EARLY GRADES, THE EMPHASIS IS ON A DEVELOPMENTAL APPROACH TO LEARNING. WE ASSIST STUDENTS TO BECOME GOOD CITIZENS. OUR MUSIC, DRAMA, ART AND PHYSICAL SKILL DEVELOPMENTS HELP CHILDREN APPRECIATE BEAUTY IN GOD'S CREATION. BY LEARNING TO EXPRESS THEIR CREATIVE IMPULSES IN PLEASING WAYS, STUDENTS DEVELOP HEALTHY HABITS AND A SENSE OF CHRISTIAN FELLOWSHIP AND SPORTSMANSHIP.BY INTEGRATING TECHNOLOGY AND ROBOTICS INTO ELEMENTARY EDUCATION, CHILDREN DEVELOP AN EXCEPTIONAL ACADEMIC FOUNDATION AT THE EARLIEST YEARS. OUR MERITORIOUS OUTDOOR EDUCATION, CHORAL/INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC PROGRAMS AND ACADEMIC COMPETITIONS ARE INSPIRATIONAL HIGHLIGHTS. MCS STUDENTS PERFORM VERY WELL ON STANDARDIZED ACHIEVEMENT TESTS, LIKE TERRANOVA 3 (COMPLETE BATTERY). FOR 2018, GRADE 4-8 STUDENTS EXCEEDED THE 85TH PERCENTILE OF NATIONAL SCHOOL NORMS PUBLISHED BY NATIONAL BLUE RIBBON SCHOOL.

BY PROVIDING A FRAMEWORK TO INSTILL HIGHER-ORDER THINKING SKILLS (ANALYZING, EVALUATING, SYNTHESIZING INFORMATION), STUDENTS GO FAR BEYOND REMEMBERING FACTS AND UNDERSTANDING CONTEXT. OUR CURRICULUM HELPS STUDENTS TO REACH A POSITION AND SUPPORT THEIR BELIEF BASED UPON THEIR CRITICAL DECISION-MAKING SKILLS. EXTRACURRICULAR PROGRAMS INCLUDE COMPETITIVE ATHLETICS, ROBOTICS AND THE ARTS (YEARBOOK, DRAMA, BANDS, AND CHOIRS). OUTDOOR EDUCATION EXPANDS THEIR UNDERSTANDING WITH A FOCUS ON EARTH SCIENCE (6TH GRADE), LIFE SCIENCE PLUS COMMUNITY SERVICE (7TH GRADE) AND LEADERSHIP (8TH GRADE). WE ENDEAVOR TO INSPIRE A LOVE OF LEARNING THAT WILL TAKE THEM FAR BEYOND THEIR FORMAL SCHOOLING YEARS AND INTO A LIFETIME OF CHALLENGES AND GROWTH.
