Enrichment Classes
It is critical that children experience a well-rounded education as they grow mentally and spiritually. Our elementary "enrichment" program aims to fill the gap of learning between the classroom and the outside world. Students are immersed in subjects such as physical education and music that test athletic ability, critical thinking and other important skills...

Meet the Masters (1st - 6th Grade)
This extensive program takes each child into the world of art where they are enriched with information about the artist, their expression of art, and the techniques they used to create their masterpieces. The children are taught texture, line, abstract, realism, pointillism, and the list goes on. They learn about the lives of the "masters"and their background. Once they are imparted with this information they then have the joy of implementing the art techniques themselves with actual various art mediums. You only need see the joy in the children’s faces to know this is an excellent program.
At Stoneybrooke, Meet the Masters is funded through SPO from generous contributions from our families. Each year we engage in a fundraiser that will support next years' program. The cost of the program for each Stoneybrooke child is $10.00 per year! That includes supplies, lectures, and actual hands-on application. All our in-class projects are taught by Stoneybrooke parents who have a passion to impart the love of art to the children. There are six projects throughout the year, and each child's art masterpiece is displayed in the "Gallery Halls" on each campus. There are many opportunities to become involved with Meet the Masters!

During PE classes, early elementary students develop their locomotor movements as well as develop object and body control skills. All other students will learn a variety of sports skill development including volleyball, basketball, soccer, street hockey and more. They will be given opportunities to exercise and learn about physical fitness and health while emphasizing social and interpersonal skills. It is our goal that Stoneybrooke PE students will grow in their skills, confidence and Christian faith through participation, teamwork, and sportsmanship.

Stoneybrooke students enjoy formal instruction in Adobe, Microsoft Office and many other software programs. Project-based, hands-on learning has students create illustrations, stories, reports, slide-shows, and even animated shorts. Throughout every year keyboarding skills and typing speed are increased through instruction, fun, practice, and regular testing.
The robust and creative Technology curriculum also includes internet safety, internet research, and more. Student projects at every level - grades one through eight - are designed to teach technology skills and, at the same time, reinforce learning in reading, writing, language, history, geography, math, spelling, and, of course, Bible! Students love technology at Stoneybrooke and are highly skilled when they graduate.
